Hi
I hope this function will help. This function is adapted to the new version
// Find the current version for our Label below
private function setApplicationVersion():void {
var app_updater:ApplicationUpdaterUI = new
ApplicationUpdaterUI();
var version_actual:String = app_updater.currentVersion;
trace("Current version is "+version_actual);
}
