DESCRIPTION
     The libvmdk_get_version() function is used to retrieve the library version.

RETURN VALUES
     Most  of  the functions return NULL or -1 on error, dependent on the return
     type.  For the actual return values see "libvmdk.h".

ENVIRONMENT
     None

FILES
     None

NOTES
     libvmdk can be compiled with wide character support (wchar_t).

     To  compile  libvmdk  with  wide	character   support   use:   ./configure
     --enable-wide-character-type=yes
      or define: _UNICODE
      or UNICODE
      during compilation.

     LIBVMDK_WIDE_CHARACTER_TYPE
      in  libvmdk/features.h  can  be  used to determine if libvmdk was compiled
     with wide character support.
