Hi, I was hacking on VersionInfo resource of Windows executables and I noticed that DLLs built with dmake always have this resource, they include solenv/inc/shlinfo.rc. But DLLs built with gmake does not have VersionInfo resource by default. Is this normal? Executables are fully functional without VersionInfo resource, but I think it is useful to have it, because it contains file version, copyright notice etc. I would like to ask, if it is by design, or if it is an undesired omission.
Before I pushed my patch (3fbedc3e8f65c91999dcee42daa8312e387dcf40) I build from scratch with MSVC successfully. However, I learned a few hours later that I broke MinGW build. http://tinderbox.libreoffice.org/cgi-bin/gunzip.cgi?tree=MASTER&brief-log=1323606001.25653#21811 I found it strange, because 1) I didn't see any problems at line 38 in shlinfo.rc; 2) under MSVC no resource was built for ucbhelper. I think this is related to the general question I asked above. Could you please check this. Eventually I wanted to cherry-pick 3fbedc3e8f65c91999dcee42daa8312e387dcf40 to libreoffice-3-5, because it improves VersionInfo a lot (especially regarding branding and file version data).
