How do I programmatically get the version of my program in my program (the one I'm writing with LabVIEW not the LabVIEW version), the version I enter into the EXE and installer builds?
In searching the available choices in the APP property node, I can only get the LabVIEW version.
I'd like to be able to use this version (string?) in working with and updating my program's native files and in dealing with the inevitable file format changes that crop up. I like to write the version string as the first element in all of the binary files I create an then write the cluster of file info after that. That way I can read in the version string first, and know which version of cluster to read next.
Right now, I'm entering the version in a lot of places places (front panel, EXE builder, Installer), but I'd like to just have the builder track it and access it from within my program somehow. BTW I've never seen what the EXE or Installer do with this info. Where does this stuff go anyway?
