Description Jan Eglinger 2012-07-26 09:58:24 CDT 
With an up-to-date Fiji:

- IJ.log(ImageJ.VERSION);  displays 1.47a
- clicking on the status bar display 1.47a

but clicking 'Help > About ImageJ...' opens the "About ImageJ" window displaying a version number of 1.46j

Any clue why is that?

Is this a checkout of fiji.git? If yes, I had that problem myself, which was caused by a bug in the Fiji Build which left an ij.jar in plugins/ that is now stale.

That was a downloaded version of Fiji that had been regularly updated over the past months. I could reproduce it on another machine (both running MacOS 10.6.8, if that makes a difference)

I checked in ./Fiji.app/plugins/, but there is no additional ij.jar.

Okay, I think I fixed it:

https://github.com/fiji/ImageJA/commit/ef78ef0a3d39a7e7716dbfaad153d1c05edbd333

Basically, we have to force a full rebuild before deploying a new version. Unfortunately, that was not even enough, I also had to update http://jenkins.imagej.net/job/Upload-IJ1-Into-Fiji/.

With the release of 1.47b it should therefore be fixed.
