AU project versioning - 255 limit

Platform Specific
1

I would like to use the build version as part of the official version scheme, but it seems Audio Units have a limitation where the format has to be n.n.n, and each tuple cannot be higher than 255.

Is there any workaround for the 255 limit? I’m way past that on some projects, so if I define my version as 1.0.712, auval thinks the version is 1.2.200.

No way around it, AudioComponentGetVersion is designed to fit into a 32-bit (4 byte) word … last byte is discarded … You’ll have to adjust your scheme to fit a UInt32 …
