FileGetVersion

[careca]

Hi, im trying to get the file version. "16.612.1119.0"

This is what i did, and what i got.

ConsoleWrite(FileGetVersion (@ScriptDir&"\SciTE4AutoIt3.exe", "FileVersion") &@CRLF)

Result:

${MyVersion}

What am i missing here?

careca,

Use $FV_FILEVERSION, not "FileVersion" - you will also need to include FileConstants.au3.

Exact same output

#include <FileConstants.au3>
ConsoleWrite(FileGetVersion (@ScriptDir&"\SciTE4AutoIt3.exe", $FV_FILEVERSION) &@CRLF)

:\

Turns out it works without any parameter... o.O

Possibly something is wrong with this function, no?

ConsoleWrite(FileGetVersion (@ScriptDir&"\SciTE4AutoIt3.exe", "FileDescription") &@CRLF)

This outputs the correct string "SciTE4AutoIt3 full installer"

but if the parameter is "FileVersion"

result is: " ${MyVersion}"

I see this was submitted as a Bug report, but it is working fine as far as I can tell. FileGetVersion() with a second parameter will return the value for that field in the "StringFileInfo" information block and the actual value is returned:

1 VERSIONINFO
FILEVERSION 16,1224,1708,0
PRODUCTVERSION 16,1224,1708,0
FILEOS 0x4
FILETYPE 0x1
{
BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
{
    BLOCK "04090000"
    {
        VALUE "Comments", "Installer containing a modified SciTE version with many extra utilities."
        VALUE "CompanyName", "Jos van der Zande"
        VALUE "FileDescription", "SciTE4AutoIt3 full installer"
        VALUE "FileVersion", "${MyVersion}"
        VALUE "LegalCopyright", "© Jos van der Zande"
        VALUE "LegalTrademarks", "Jos van der Zande"
        VALUE "ProductName", "SciTE4AutoIt3"
    }
}

BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
{
    VALUE "Translation", 0x0409 0x0000  
}
}

I will fix the issue with the MyVersion in there in the NSIS installer.
