Get File Version of unmanaged dll

[ralphtrent]

Hello
I need to get the file version of a dll not written in dot net. What are my options? I have tried System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(dllname).FileVersion but all i get is ??. Nothing usable.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo should returns what is said.
Example:

string fn="C:\\Windows\\System32\\comctl32.dll";
string fileVersion=FileVersionInfo myFileVersionInfo = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(fn);

will return fileVersion = "5.82 (xpsp.060825-0040)";
The file name can be any file, exe, dll, txt .

There are low level API calls via windows that can give you that info if the wrapped .Net version doesn't provide it.

Try obislavu's suggestion first though...
