How to generate installer version

sealite · 21st February 2003, 14:40

Hi,
I have the following problem: I want to update automaticaly the installer version on compile time using one of the following source information:
1. the app.exe version from the kit
or
2. the compilation date

Does anyone know a method of getting this information ?

PS. I want to read the version of the file without installing it!

Also i need to access the compilation date but I see no define for this like in C (__DATE__)

Have a look at this thread and use nsDate from the archive downloads page with it to get what you are looking for.
