Hi.
I have a VI and a build specification for it. In the Version Information section of the build specification, I set the version number to auto-increment. I would like to display this version number on an indicator on the front panel of the executable, but I have not found a property that provides this information. Does anybody know how to get the executable version number? I am aware that it is possible to right-click on the .exe file in windows explorer, go to properties and get it that way, but I would like to display it on the VI itself.
On a related topic, I have noticed that only the 'build' field of the version gets auto-incremented. How does the application builder decide when it is time to increment the major, minor and fix fields? Or will it only ever auto-increment the build field and I am supposed to update the other fields manually? (That would actually make sense, but I would like confirmation.)
Thanks in advance,
Alejandro
