Thread: version?

Well, in MSVC++, you can create a type of resource called 'version' or 'version sheet' or something which you input all different info bout ur prog

I snagged some code from a MSVC++ header file to accomplish this using mingw (it works with other compilers too). Here is an example.

This goes in your resource file

Code:

VS_VERSION_INFO VERSIONINFO
//Fill in the file version and product version accordingly
 FILEVERSION 1,0,0,0
 PRODUCTVERSION 1,0,2,2
 FILEFLAGSMASK 0x3fL
#ifdef _DEBUG
 FILEFLAGS 0x1L
#else
 FILEFLAGS 0x0L
#endif
 FILEOS 0x40004L
 FILETYPE 0x1L
 FILESUBTYPE 0x0L
BEGIN
    BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
    BEGIN
        BLOCK "040904b0"
        BEGIN
            VALUE "Comments", "???\0"
            VALUE "CompanyName", "???\0"
            VALUE "FileDescription", "???\0"
            VALUE "FileVersion", "???\0"
            VALUE "InternalName", "???\0"
            VALUE "LegalCopyright", "???\0"
            VALUE "OriginalFilename", "???\0"
            VALUE "ProductName", "???\0"
            VALUE "ProductVersion", "???\0"
        END
    END
    BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
    BEGIN
        VALUE "Translation", 0x409, 1200
    END
END

Enjoy!

PS: Any "???" reference should be replaced with your info.
