Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] Macro for testing the version you are compiling with

Added a macro similar to the Linux kernel's KERNEL_VERSION so

can simply do something like:

virSomeNewFunction();

I think it'd be better to have something like GLib's macro
https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-Version-Information.html#GLI...
eg
#if LIBVIRT_CHECK_VERSION(1,1,3)
...some code...
#endif
Of course this won't help the python binding - we'll need to actually
provide that macro in the python binding so it can work with all old
historic versions of libvirt.
