I need to get the assembley version in runtime in c#. One one from the assembly.cs file

[assembly: AssemblyVersion("4.3.0.0")]


Thanks a million in advance...

Hi,

That is OK if you already reference System.Windows (as the Application class is defined in there)

A more generic way is to use reflection:

using System.Reflection;

...

// There are a few possiblilities here. 
// Look at the doc for the Assembly class
Assembly assbly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly():

string str = assbly.GetName().Version.ToString();

You also have properties on the version object (major, minor, etc.) which allows you to see each part of the version info.

Good Luck.
