Request for more functionality in Math::BigFloat

accessing other file version information

Further to my previous email, I can now access the "File Version" information. However, is there a general (or any) access method for the other "info" fields that Perlapp allows one to set? Can one retrieve the "Comments" field for example?

Using the --info data from Perl

Is there any way that I can access the fields set by the perlapp -info parameter? I am thinking of setting the product version via this method, and wonder if I can then access that field from within the Perl program I am compiling. Is it possible? Many thanks Geoff 21 Gloucester Road
