/**
 * In order to compare version numbers in Mozilla, you need to use the
 * mozilla::Version class.  You can construct an object of this type by passing
 * in a string version number to the constructor.  Objects of this type can be
 * compared using the standard comparison operators.
 *
 * For example, let's say that you want to make sure that a given version
 * number is not older than 15.a2.  Here's how you would write a function to
 * do that.
 *
 * bool IsVersionValid(const char* version) {
 *   return mozilla::Version("15.a2") <= mozilla::Version(version);
 * }
 *
 * Or, since Version's constructor is implicit, you can simplify this code:
 *
 * bool IsVersionValid(const char* version) {
 *   return mozilla::Version("15.a2") <= version;
 * }
 *
 * On Windows, if your version strings are wide characters, you should use the
 * mozilla::VersionW variant instead.  The semantics of that class is the same
 * as Version.
