Can I access my Scala app's name and version (as set in SBT) from code?

Question

I am building an app with SBT (0.11.0) using a Scala build definition like so:

object MyAppBuild extends Build {

  import Dependencies._

  lazy val basicSettin

Name and version are inserted into manifest. You can access them using java reflection from Package class.

val p = getClass.getPackage
val name = p.getImplementationTitle
val version = p.getImplementationVersion
