al_get_allegro_version(3)   Library Functions Manual   al_get_allegro_version(3)

NAME
     al_get_allegro_version - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS
	    #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

	    uint32_t al_get_allegro_version(void)

DESCRIPTION
     Returns the (compiled) version of the Allegro library, packed into a single
     integer  as  groups  of  8 bits in the form (major << 24) | (minor << 16) |
     (revision << 8) | release.

     You can use code like this to extract them:

	    uint32_t version = al_get_allegro_version();
	    int major = version >> 24;
	    int minor = (version >> 16) & 255;
	    int revision = (version >> 8) & 255;
	    int release = version & 255;

     The release number is 0 for an unofficial version and 1 or greater  for  an
     official  release.   For  example	"5.0.2[1]" would be the (first) official
     5.0.2 release while "5.0.2[0]" would be a compile of  a  version  from  the
     "5.0.2" branch before the official release.
