How can I tell which CakePHP version is a project made with?
Is it possible to know the version of CakePHP used to generate a project with only the app code available?
My problem:
I downloaded a project made with CakePHP, and I really can't tell which Cake version to use. The files say, e.g. @version $Revision: 8004 $, but this is different in some files. Should I assume that the highest revision (8004) is the correct one to use?
It seems to be from around 2008, so I guess it's a 1.x version.
PD: Here is the code to the project.
Answer
I have found that the version, as of CakePHP 2.3.0, is held within a static file under the root Cake lib.
bash #: cat $CAKE_ROOT/lib/Cake/VERSION.txt
