Good day,
Please am use to pass version info in the project options and would
like to know if it is possible to pass it directly from the *.lpr
source file as literal string.
Are you talking about the version of the compiler (and/or IDE and/or
LCL) or of your program? And on which operating system? And what do
you want to do with it: use it for conditional compilation or refer to
it while the program's running?
The version of my program.
If you mean that you want to put something into the .lpr (i.e. the main
unit of the program) and then use that elsewhere in the program, I've
been told in the past to do this:
program HeavyWethers;
CONST projectName= {$I %FILE% } ;
begin
Application.Initialize;
GlobalProjectName := projectName;
Application.CreateForm(...
where GlobalProjectName is a public global in some other unit.
Alternatively note Project Options -> Version Info, see

together with its attachment and/or related messages.
