• See Release notes: 0.16 #1648 (comment)
• Fix CMake superbuild control Fix: CMake Internal Control #1678

Which version am I running?

Python

import openpmd_api
print(openpmd_api.__version__)

C++

#include <openPMD/openPMD.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main() {
    // query compile-time macros:
    std::cout << OPENPMDAPI_VERSION_MAJOR << "."
              << OPENPMDAPI_VERSION_MINOR << "."
              << OPENPMDAPI_VERSION_PATCH << std::endl;
    // there is also: OPENPMDAPI_VERSION_LABEL (e.g. "alpha")

    // or query the runtime API (since 0.12.0):
    std::cout << openPMD::getVersion() << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

CLI

# command line option (since 0.12.0):
openpmd-ls --version

I have pushed a fixed version of the version script that now includes the missing files. The diff created by the script (when executed on the dev branch right before 0.16.0) is identical to this PR's diff.
There was one version update missing in the CI, pushed a fix there too.

Thank you @franzpoeschel ! 🎉

Does the Pythonic suffix work as well?

• dev/rc . suffix: For setup.py it needs to read x.y.zaN and x.y.z.dev per PEP-440.
• dev/rc - suffix: In C++ and docs/source/conf.py: "release" (not "version") we write x.y.z and x.y.z-dev.
• In CMakeLists.txt we use no suffix for dev/rc versions.

[ax3l]

To update once all fixes are in.

[franzpoeschel]

Are any further fixes needed?
We could bump toml11 back to 4.2 now that we know the segfault was my setup's fault.

[franzpoeschel]

Thank you @franzpoeschel ! 🎉

Does the Pythonic suffix work as well?

* dev/rc `.` suffix: For `setup.py` it needs to read `x.y.zaN` and `x.y.z.dev` per PEP-440.

* dev/rc `-` suffix: In C++ and `docs/source/conf.py: "release"` (not `"version"`) we write `x.y.z` and `x.y.z-dev`.

* In `CMakeLists.txt` we use _no_ suffix for dev/rc versions.

I tried paying atttention to this. This is the diff after using the script to enable version 0.17.0-dev:
