File Format

This section of a metadata file indicates the file version number. The version number changes only when changes are made to the file format. The file format is automatically generated when you extract metadata; if you are defining a file to load, you must include a valid file format. This syntax specifies the file format:

!FILE_FORMAT = majorNumber.minorNumber

majorNumber and minorNumber consist of one or two digits. majorNumber can contain a leading zero, and minorNumber can contain a trailing zero. You must include majorNumber and minorNumber and use only a period ( . ) as the decimal separator. These examples represent valid file format values:

!FILE_FORMAT = 11.12

!FILE_FORMAT = 11.120

!FILE_FORMAT = 011.120

!FILE_FORMAT = 011.12
