alexadmin Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I have developed simple application and build executable. I want to add any auto-incremented version information to front panel. It can be VI's revision number or File Version Number of executable. How I can get these data? I know that FileVersion can be extracted with system calls (via dll, for example) with several screens of c++ code. Is there more easy solutions? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
dannyt Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 You might be interested in looking at the OpenG builder application OpenG, it has a nice auto-increment revision system build into it and so much more Within the builder there is a "Build Version Control " option, you name a Revision text file , which OpenG looks after for you and using this file as a seed, it auto-increments on each build the build number and inserts this value into a LabVIEW Control. Basically you select one of your VI maybe your top level VI or an About.vi launched from your top_level and on that VI you place the control you want OPenG to populate. cheers Dannyt Quote Link to comment

iannicholson Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 The MGI toolkit has a Version Info node which uses API calls... It returns 'Development' when you run as a VI, or the executable version in compiled executables. I add the version to my FP's title bar. http://www.mooregoodideas.com/goodLabViewStuff.htm Quote Link to comment
