OK... so what am I doing wrong... I get the following error:
C:\nant\qa.build(22,3):
Function call failed.
Expression:
${script::get-file-version('\\devevolution\C$\DailyBuild\bin\Geac.Fi
nancials.Business.dll')}
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
\\devevolution\C$\DailyBuild\bin\Geac.Financials.Business.dll
I tried it with an without escaping the back slashes. Here is the
relevant portion from my build file:
<property name="sys.version"
value="${script::get-file-version('\\devevolution\C$\DailyBuild\bin\Geac
.Financials.Business.dll')}" />
<!-- Get Version -->
<script language="C#" prefix="script">
<code><![CDATA[
[Function("get-file-version")]
public string GetFileVersion( string file ) {
System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo
myFileVersionInfo =
System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(file);
return myFileVersionInfo.FileVersion;
}
]]></code>
</script>

actually you can set the properties from the function as well. Like:
<script language="C#" prefix="script" >
<code><![CDATA[
[Function("get-file-version")]
public string GetFileVersion( string file, bool setProperties )
{
System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo myFileVersionInfo =
System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(file);
if ( setProperties ) {
Project.Properties["dll.majorversion"] =
myFileVersionInfo.FileMajorPart.ToString();
Project.Properties["dll.minorversion"] =
myFileVersionInfo.FileMinorPart.ToString();
Project.Properties["dll.buildversion"] =
myFileVersionInfo.FileBuildPart.ToString();
Project.Properties["dll.privateversion"] =
myFileVersionInfo.FilePrivatePart.ToString();
}
return myFileVersionInfo.FileVersion;
}
]]></code>
</script>
the advantage of a custom function over a block of script in a target is
that you only have to define it once and can then call it for each file
you need version info for.
