I have googled my eyes out recently, trying to figure out an easy way of setting my installer's version number to match that of my product.
I found three alternatives. None of them appeals to me, because they are either kludgy, involves some kind of plug-in or ...well, kludgy: http://morten.lyhr.dk/2007/10/how-to-insert-assembly-version-number.html (which links to the third option) http://vsts-fu.blogspot.com/2009/01/injecting-version-numbers-into-wix.html My idea is this: When I include a project reference, I get all sorts of nice variables defined. Target platform - check. TargetDir - check. Target version... Target version? The one really interesting attribute of my included project is MIA. Is there a possibility this can be included eventually? I suspect this would prove helpful to quite a few users. Or is there already a more elegant solution to this seemingly simple "problem"? Thanks for all the great help so far guys. -- Rune ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
