I need to display the version number of the application on the top bar of the application. I managed to crate a setup wizard but I have no idea how to manage the verions.
View 6 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?
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.

I want to get the major, minor, build and revision version numbers of an EXE, not my vb project.If I do:

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.
View 5 RepliesI have written a small program in VB 2010 Express and I would like to show the version number of my program on the form. I looked through the HELP files and found an example. I put the example in my code like this:'Get the version of the current application.
Dim assem As Assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()
Dim assemName As AssemblyName = assem.GetName()
Dim ver As Version = assemName.Version
Me.Text = "1st CPC Check Deposit Program Version" & " " & ver.ToString
I am up to version 1.0.0.8 but this is what prints:
1st CPC Check Deposit Program Version 1.0.0.0
Why doesn't it print 1.0.0.8 ?
I've defined two numbers. ThisVersionNumber and LatestVersionNumber, I want to compare them, and so if ThisVersionNumber = < LatestVersionNumber it will show a dialogue.

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?

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.
Is it possible to change the application version without publishing the application? Because I'm going to make an auto updater which needs some version information to work, but I don't want to have an installer.
View 3 RepliesIt 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.
is there a way to generate a random number and then display that number?
like for example i want to say "i got # - # pencils" or something like that
I am trying to run a nested loop; it should call a result from a MDB database. Which it does, when I run the single loop it goes thru all of the entries. But when I try to get a number to display twice it stops on the second entry. Having it display the number twice is just a test to make sure it does work, I am going to modify it after I can prove the loop works. The count on the Message Box is correct, but the number displayed is wrong?I want it to display each number twice and then move on to the next number. [code]

I've written a really simple launcher app for my team at work to use. However I wrote it in VB.net Express 2010 so its using .NET 4. I need it to be compatible with older machines that are using .NET 2 or maybe 2.5. I don't want to force upgrading to a higher .net if its not needed. And in some cases we work on old machines that can't be upgraded. My app is really simple and I'll post the code if needed. I am still a noob, my coding is ugly, and this is a quick and dirty tool.
View 1 RepliesWell I just did an update on my application-i fixed a few major bugs and minor bugs and did some UI enhancements- my old version was 1.0.0.0 should it now be 1.0.1.1 or 1.0.1.0 or 1.1.0.0 or 1.1.0.1? I need to know when I should change each point...Should my revision increment increase by one every sing time, even if i updated the build? The Minor? Major? Please Help-I want my application to be as professional as possible.

View 2 RepliesI have developed an application in VB.net which uses R Programming language. The library that help connect VB.net to R is called R-DCOM. The application requires the user to install R-Programming language into the user's computer. The application was working all fine until there was a version change in the R-Programming language. The specific libraries involved with this are: Interop.STATCONNECTORCLNTLib.dll, Interop.StatConnectorCommonLib.dll and Interop.STATCONNECTORSRVLib.dll. It also uses StatConnectorClnt.tlb, StatConnectorSrv.exe and StatConnLib.tlb to run the application. Is this something related to "DLL hell". Is there a fix to that I may not have to recompile and install the original code and install them to the user's computer all over again.
