Your version.txt file is python specific, it will not work in D.
You have 2 options:
- create a .res file in Visual Studio and edit it by adding a
VERSIONINFO resource.
- create a .rc file in any text editor adding a VERSIONINFO
resource; compile it to .res using rc yourfile.rc
Pass the .res file to the dmd compiler in the command line.
To add to Rumbo's comment: to compile a *.rc to *.res file you
will need a resource compiler.
Digital Mars's C/C++ tools [1] include one, but I suspect only
for x86.
But, if you are on Windows, all of the recent Windows SDKs bundle
the resource compiler as well - in both x86 and x64 versions.
On my PC I have rc.exe as part of SDK v7.1...
c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1A\Bin\RC.Exe
c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1A\Bin\x64\RC.Exe
..as well as part of SDK v8.1:
c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x64\rc.exe
c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x86\rc.exe
I don't have SDK 10 installed, but that will probably also
contain it.
You should be able to get the individual SDKs from [2] or as part
of a Visual Studio download.
