Getting the Build Version

[dace]

Hi all -
I just have a quick question about build versions.

With other .NET languages, you can get the build version from
System.Windows.Forms.Form.Application.ProductVersion.

Is there an equivalent for ASP.NET? I tried looking for a property in System.Web.UI.Page, but I haven't been having any luck so far.

Thanks!

I am not sure if this is 100% of what you are looking for but I always check the properties of the dll that gets compiled and put into the bin directory of my application. Click the "Version" tab and you will see what version number the assembly got.

Thanks for your reply evaleah.

I know that's possible, but I need a way to get the version in-code.

Replace myApp.exe with the name of your application...

FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo("myApp.exe");
if (fileInfo.Exists)
{
sCurDir = fileInfo.DirectoryName;
strFile.Insert(0,sCurDir + "\\" + "myApp.exe");
FileVersionInfo myFileVersionInfo = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(strFile.ToString());
lblVersion.Text = "File Version: " + myFileVersionInfo.FileVersion.ToString();
}
else
lblVersion.Text = "File Version not determined";

}

Not entirely sure (haven't used it myself), but how 'bout System.Reflection.AssemblyVersionAttribute?
