Identify version via log statement upon startup
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: EJBTHREE-970
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-970
             Project: EJB 3.0
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Documentation, EJB3 Extensions
    Affects Versions: EJB 3.0 RC9 - Patch 1, EJB 3.0 RC9 - FD
         Environment: Sun Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_11-b03, mixed mode, sharing)
Ubuntu Linux 7.04
Maven 2.0.6
            Reporter: Dan Allen


The problems with the remiss documentation regarding the versions of the libraries included in the EJB 3.0 distributions is already well represented in this issue tracker (EJBTHREE-621 EJBTHREE-512 EJBTHREE-596).  However, aside from being more explicit with naming, there is another way to document which version is in use.  Please add a DEBUG or INFO level log statement to the EJB 3.0 container startup class (such as in the EJB3StandaloneBoostrap) that identifies the version number of the distribution.

Seam implements this feature by using the statement "Welcome to Seam 1.2.1.GA".  I have found cases where this statement clued me into the fact that someone had named the jar file with a version number that was inconsistent with its contents.
