Hey,
thanks for the quick response to #78.
There is still an issue around the missing ChangeLog file in development builds.
I've proposed some changes to handle version comparison in case there is no ChangeLog file.
If we are in a development build with a ChangeLog file, we read the latest release version from the ChangeLog file and compare it.
If we are in a development build without a ChangeLog file, then we can be sure that it's a version higher than is needed for the compatibility classes.
If it's a regular release build, the release version gets compared to determine whether compatibility classes are needed or not.
