Whenever I build my VB.Net project, the Assembly version does not automatically update as it is supposed to with the * in the third box in the Assembly Information. The only way I have found to (sometimes - it doesn't always work) get the version number to update is to Clean the Project, remove the *, Rebuild, reClean, put the * back in, and Rebuild again. What could be causing this issue to happen?
I should note that my coworker reports no such issue on his machine when Building the same Project; also, I must admit to some confusion on my part as to how this behavior is even possible, given that the error persists even if I remove every possible intermediate file I can think of that could possibly even be carrying the old version number, so how does it even know the old version number?
How do I programmatically increment a given version's number to the next version of the highest one?
For example if I have a file Program.exe with the following version numbers :
Program.exe 1.0.0.0
Program.exe 1.0.0.4
Program.exe 1.1.0.76
Program.exe 1.0.0.66
The next version number in this case would be 1.1.0.77
What's the easiest way to implement that?
This is probably an easy question: I need to change my version number from 5.4 to 5.5. This is not the assembly version, but the version (I think) of my executable.

Dim assemName As AssemblyName = assem.GetName()
Dim ver As Version = assemName.Version

I am up to version 1.0.0.8 but this is what prints:

Why doesn't it print 1.0.0.8 ?

You can get the version of your application sing My.Application.Info.Version. Is it also possible to set this version using code? This because I have a webservice that connects to a database and retrieves a version number.My application then compares that version number with his one, if it's old.. then it will download new files and change his version number.

View 4 RepliesI created a set up project and assigned a version number at Version property as 1.0.0.
How to:
1) Auto increase version number once rebuild? For example, next rebuild will make version number as 1.0.1 and so on,
2) Display this version number in main.vb page?
I have created a com dll in vb 2005 and used in vb6. It's working fine.
I have a question why Windows Explorer does not show it�s version number? I have properly set both the Assembly version and File version.
Again I did create a test com dll - windows explorer does show it's version number properly.
It was very practical to keep build number in VB6, as it auto-incremented that number every time that i "compiled" the program.
There is any equivalent feature in VB.Net? I am using VS 2005.

I've been using a piece of code I found that reads in joystick movement into my VB application using DirectInput. Building an executable works great, the program operates as should be, however when I publish my program for final deployment, I get the following error:
"WindowsApplication has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
Here's some of the error details:
EventType : clr20r3 P1 : windowsapplication.exe P2 : 1.0.0.0

P7 : 88 P8 : 8 P9 : system.io.fileloadexception

ModName: kernel32.dll ModVer: 5.1.2600.5781 ModStamp:49c4f482

The errors only occur once I try installing the program and just before the application loads.Here's the code for the program:

Im building an application, will be releasing its beta version for a group of beta testers.I want to add "b" to the version number.E.g. my application's version number will be 1.0.0.0b. Since I use Application.ProductVersion to retrieve version number wherever I have to display it or use it, I thought there must be some way of adding the alphabet ("b") to the version number.

I have created a license system for my application with MySql about half a year ago. What it would do is take the serial number and send it to my server if the key was correct it would return a 0 if its wrong the return value would be a 1.The problem was that when the serial number was entered correctly my program would create a "fake file" for example vb.dll in the system.And on run time my program would check for that vb.dll if the file exist it would skip my trial program and run the app as a full version. Half year later i think creating a "fake file" and checking for it on start up is extremely wrong and that's not very good security.How can i check the difference between a full version and unregistered version?
