Обсуждение: [pgAdmin][RM4421] Inno setup script version compare fix

Hi Hackers,

Attached is the patch to fix a potential issue where version compare while upgrading will be incorrect. Currently, it is comparing strings. So while comparing '4.9' and '4.10' it will consider '4.9' as greater.

The patch will convert the values to float and compare.

Kindly review.

Hi Hackers,

Attached is the updated patch. Instead of float comparison, string comparison is done now with the help of a nice article here - http://www.arvydas.co.uk/2015/04/compare-version-strings-with-innosetup/

Kindly review.
