1. I think it is ok but Windows Installer will ignore the 4th part. 2. I pass the version in on the candle command line and use code like this in the wxs file: <!-- This is application version number, update for each release --> <?ifndef Version?> <?define Version = "1.23.4" ?> <?endif ?>
<Product Id="*" Version="$(var.Version)" etc... > Neil Neil Sleightholm X2 Systems Limited [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Adam Connelly Sent: Fri 18/07/2008 11:30 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Automatically setting version number Hi, I've got a CI setup that automatically generates a x.x.x.x style version number. I've got all my assemblies versioned properly (with a generated shared SolutionInfo.cs file), and I set the msi output name as MyMSI-x.x.x.x.msi and now I want to set the Version attribute of the Product tag. Two questions: 1) Is it ok to put a four digit version number in here? 2) How would you recommend I set the version, bearing in mind I get my version number from a $(build_number) environment variable? I was thinking of modifying the project file and shoving a msbuild task that edits the Product.wxs in, but if possible I'd like to avoid modifying project files since it would probably be quite easy to forget to do when setting up new projects.
