IDE - My.Application.Info.Version.Build Returns Wrong Value
Mar 6, 2009
We're using team build with AssemblyInfoTask to increment the build number in a nightly build. The build number is displayed in the application using My.Application.Info.Version.Build.This has been working fine for years. But since we branched the sources and started using file references instead of project references (have no idea if that's what causes the problem), the last build number is displayed instead of the current one.
The compiled files (dll's and exe's) have the correct build number, if checked by right clicking the file in Explorer and viewing detailed properties. However when the same exe-file is executed, the UI displays the previous build number.If I edit the AssemblyInfo.vb file manually (just set another number, save the file, and set it back again), both file properties in Explorer and the UI at runtime displays the correct build number. How can this happen? What can be done to avoid this strange behavior?

The version in the Publish page of the project properties is set to 1.4.0.1, but My.Application.Info.Version.ToString returns "1.0.0.0"

I would like to build a text string that is the build version of my program. In VB6 I would use the values retrieved from App.Version.Major/Minor. I have looked for something similar in VS2010 VB but unable to find it. I did find information on the .NET framework, but I am looking for a build version of my program.

I am trying to create an autoupdater for my application, and I came up with an idea to use the "After build" event to export the application version to txt file.Just a simple txt file with lets say "1.0.1" in it.

I'm trying to get the last time the directory was updated (written to), and if it's later than the date i have stored i want to process that directory for new/changed information.The problem I'm having is that the Directory.GetLastWriteTime(path) seems to only get updated with creating and deletion of files.when a user just updates an existing file (for example a text document) the GetLastWriteTime remains the same for the directory even though the modified time of the text file has changed.
I don't want to itterate through the files in the directory, is there any reason the directory last write time does not get updated when modifying an existing file?

This is driving me out of my mind. My Gridview returns the wrong rowindex after sorting or filtering. I am using a detailsview to edit the selected record however I found out I was editing the wrong record. I am using this statement to retrieve the selected record from the gridview
DetailsView1.PageIndex = GridView1.SelectedRow.DataItemIndex however this only returns the correct index if the grid stays in the original form, meaning not sorted or filtered. I guess the statement returns the index with respect to the gridview not the actual table. First of all is this this a .NET bug? and second of all how do I retrieve the correct record to edit it in the detailsview either by getting the correct index or a key such as AssetID in my case. I am using VisualStudio 2010 Professional and the code is in VB. Please do not give me C# as I don't use it.

TempUserPath = My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.MyDocuments Returns the string "C:UsersOwnerDocuments" but that folder is actually named "My Documents" (i.e., is "C:UsersOwnerMy Documents" in the Finder).When I try to create a new folder called "Documents" in the Owner directory, Windows asks if I want to merge its contents with the My Documents folder. If I say yes, I am left with only the My Documents folder and none named "Documents".Thus when I attempt to read or write a file to the TempUserPath location, I get an "access denied" error. This happens even after I manually change the name of the folder from "My Documents" to "Documents".

Due to the July 13 end of life support for IE6 minus SP3, I am planning on checking the build version of the browser once logging in. I am able to return the browser major and minor versions but cannot find a way to get to the build/patch version which tells what SP the user has. I need to confirm the user is using an IE version higher than 6.00.2900.5512.

I've got vb Express and want to increase the version of the build file automatically. I know it can auto change the publish-version, but i never publish files. I use the build option and get the application at: ...Visual Studio 2008ProjectsWindowsApplication1WindowsApplication1inRelease. So how can vb increase the revision or build number automatically?

I am developing an application that will run with a GUI when no commandline args are passed, but can also run invisibly if started from the commandline and passed necessary arguments. I have been asked to include a /version argument that will return a version number. For simplicity this version number can be stored in a variable. Without doing something like writing the version number out to a file, what is the best way for me to return this info to the caller? My app will almost always be started from a script, so the script will have to read the version number and make decisons based on the version.

Every time I compile a new release build in vb.net 2009, the file version number of my main exe is correct, but the assembly version number is the same as the last build instead of the current version even though I manually change the file and assembly version in the design studio to be the same prior to compiling.The only way I can get the assembly version to be correct is to close Visual Studio and delete the obj folder. Then if I open the solution and recompile, all is well.
Here is the information copied from the About box in VS:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008
Version 9.0.30729.1 SP
Microsoft .NET Framework

Is there a way to make the express version do a "clean build"?
Some of my project compilations have developed a problem which prevents debugging.
"The breakpoint that isn't working will display a message if highilighted with the mouse. The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document."
The difference I've seen between the project folders for an app that will debug vs one that will not debug is that there is no ".pdb" file in the folder where the application to be debugged is running.Debug (F5) or "Build" no longer create this file.
Many of the discussion participants suggest deleting the "obj" and "bin" folders before compiling - on the assumption that this will "force" a "clean build" - is that supposed to be true? My express version has no "clean build" option, and deleting the obj and bin folders doesn't cuase them to be completely rebuilt.
Is "msbuild" the only way to force a complete build when you have the express version?
Also - how do I determine/control which net framework vision vs2010 express is using?[code]...

I would then be able to read this version in code from a VB6 program.

How they relate and differ from each? What are the best practices for version control? Is there a primer about publish online? Or a good book?
And is it possible to make ClickOnce and a msi in one solution of VS 2008? If so, is there any conflict or pitfall?
BTW I am using VB if that makes any difference.

I've got a DataGridview I want to remove columns from as it greatly increases performance when I format the DGV. The first time I remove columns in a loop (using the removeat) property, everythings fine. But when I try to remove more columns in another loop, it appears to remove the wrong columns and displays the wrong data. In other words, it displays the wrong data and headers; and the columns it does show has headers and cells that don't match.

I'm using my.settings to save the load time of the solution. When my.settings.load_time value is changed and use my.settings.load_time.save() to save them. When I quit the application and manually start it again, the newly saved settings are used.When I use either application.restart. The application will use the old values for my.settings.Is there a way to restart the application using either application.restart which will use the newly saved my.settings values?

This does not work on a remote web server or in any hosted environment outside of a local server.

Let's say 10 desktop shortcuts, all with different names/icons, point to and can start the same exe application from the same directory. Is there any means for the application to know the distinct name of the shortcut that was doubled_clicked. Also is there any means for a running application to know if it was started by command line, by a double_click on the exe, by a double_click on a shortcut that points to it, or by another process' call?
