Filegetversion still returning AutoIT version.......

[hogfan]

I have the following code in the my compiled script:

#Region AutoIt3Wrapper directives section            
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Fileversion= "1.0.2"
#endregion

However, when running filegetversion function, autoit is still returning the AutoIT version, and not "1.0.2" as I have specified. Any help extremely appreciated.

Think it has to be in this format

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Fileversion=1.0.0.0

[hogfan]

Changed to:

#Region AutoIt3Wrapper directives section
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Description= Description            
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Fileversion= 1.0.2.0
#endregion

but the Fileversion comparison still returns the autoit version. I have searched on this as well but couldn't find any good documentation in the help file. Any help appreciated.

I have even tried your example (although I do not see it in the helpfile) and after compiling the version number on the Details tab in Windows Explorer only shows the AutoIT version. So your question isn't why FileGetVersion isn't working (because it is) but instead why the version isn't being changed on compile.

I am just compiling with Aut2EXE. From what I have been seeing it looks like I actually need to install autoitwrapper, but I can't find a download for that.

Load the full SciTE4AutoIt3 installer and things will work fine.

[hogfan]

Ok, I got the latest version installed and re-compiled the script, but the file version is still showing the AutoIT version. I am at a loss.

[Jos]

Did you get information in the SciTE outputpane during your compile( f7) that the version is updated?

Are you looking for fileversion or product version?

I'm actually compiling with Aut2Exe. I am looking for the fileversion #.

Compile WITHOUT compressing with UPX then use Reshacker to change the file version resource value then use the appcompacter form portableapps.com to compress the file with UPX.

Try downloading and installing this

I did try this. When I compile with that the fileversion is still autoit version on .exe generated.

As stated, this fileversion option is to be used with the full version of SciTE.

Open SciTE, open your script, compile using F7.

You will see your file version change.

Whenever I try to build after compiling the script directly out of SCITE Editor, I get no output file even though it says it was created. That's why I was compiling with Aut2exe.

[hogfan]

Tried again, created a folder and gave everyone full control of it. Scite says the .exe was created successfully, but it didn't create the file. I have never had so many problems.

Compile a script and post the complete output pane information from Scite and we'll see what might be going wrong.

Yeap, can't be you so must be something with the stuff we gave you.

Anyway, give us some real input on your what you are doing and we might be able to help.

Also tell us if you started SciTE in admin mode or not assuming you are using win7 or Vista.

Ok, I found the problem with the compile. It compiles fine with the correct version # if I disable "Use UPX" in the Compile settings. However I don't understand why the UPX is getting this permission denied error with UPX enabled.

Any ideas on this one?

Build your scripts out of the Program Files folders and see if that makes any difference. Also, make sure that you don't have a Windows Explorer window open to the folder that the .exe is being created in.
