Andy Smith had an interesting comment in a private email. He suggested loading the file in with the CodeDom and then retrieving the assembly level attribute, and then generalizing this to reading any assembly attribute. I think this is a great idea, but now that I've thought about it I'm not sure about using it to write the file back out, which is what I do when incrementing the version number.
For now, I think I'll just base it on the file extension and use a regex. I'll make the filename a required attribute. I'll play with the CodeDom version in my spare time. I've got the VB and MC++ versions working, but I can't figure out how to create a Jscript project. Does anyone know what the syntax for an assembly level attribute in Jscript would be?
