Is there a way to detect the version of the build from Lua?

I’m the creator of Spriteloq and with it comes an API to make managing of sprites easier. With the release of the new setFillColor feature in 614, my users have requested this feature and I’ve implemented it. Unfortunately, the latest non-subscriber build 591 does not support this feature but it does have a function called setFillColor. Calling it makes the sprite display white and the causes Corona to crash.

Is there a way to detect the version number of Corona from Lua? I want to notify the user as well disable features if possible. Otherwise I’ll have to make a “subscriber” and “non-subscriber” API which sucks.

I think you should do like what we do. Be explicit about it.

This version of X works on build Y of Corona SDK.
