version number

[BigDog]

hi , i m new , nice to meet u here !

i have completed some .au3 and compiled them to .exe

but , how do i set the version number of these .exe file ?

because i wish these .exe files could be updated by user from internet.

should i maintain the version number at some where like txt_file or REG by myself

or there is some related property could be set and get in a .au3 or a .exe file ?

I don't think AutoIt has a built in function for that, i personally use a file on a ftp server , and the script downloads that file and compares the first line with a variable in the script

Place this at top of your AU3 script

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Fileversion=1.0.0.0

When you press F7 (compile) Autoit3Wrapper will do the job for you.

For more details in Scite press Ctrl+F1 then go to

Extra Utilities/Autoit3Wrapper/Directives available

Make sure you have the Full SciTE4AutoIt3 package loaded to use the Directive as indicated by Zedna.

That would be:

$Fileversion = FileGetVersion("Myscript.exe")
Msgbox(0, "", $fileversion)

I dont think that the error would impact your script, try compiling it and then see if it still gives the error.
