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.

View 2 RepliesI 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.
View 3 RepliesI'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?
View 2 RepliesWe'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?
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.

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]...
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?

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?
