How to retrieve Glass XE version number?

Question

How can I retrieve information about Google Glass with GDK, e.g. which software update is currently installed on Google Glass ?

Answer 1

You can do this via adb

adb shell getprop ro.build.version.glass
//XE12 

adb shell getprop ro.build.version.release
//4.0.4

To get it programmatically IE (if XE10) do this else if (XE12)...
