Description Rob James 2008-10-06 16:28:42 UTC 
The return value of api.getVersion contains the string "Java" (e.g. "0.2 Java") which was apparently historically to be able to tell the difference between the old style (Perl?) and new style stuff. Since this is apparently ancient history it should probably be removed (and it's not documented in the api docs either).
Comment 1 Jesus M. Rodriguez 2009-01-17 01:17:57 UTC 
Verify that getVersion no longer returns "Java", and close the bug.
Comment 2 Jesus M. Rodriguez 2009-02-24 19:08:59 UTC 
api.getVersion() returns the value of 'web.apiversion' as defined in
/etc/rhn/defaults/rhn_web.conf
