VERSIONINFO Resource (Compact 2013)

  • Artigo

3/28/2014

This resource-definition statement creates a version-information resource. The resource contains such information about the file as its version number, its intended operating system, and its original file name. The resource is intended to be used with the File Installation library functions.

                    versionID VERSIONINFO fixed-info { block-statement . . . }

Parameters

  • versionID
    Specifies the version-information resource identifier. This value must be 1.

  • fixed-info
    Specifies the version information, such as the file version and the intended operating system. This parameter consists of the following statements.

    Value

    Description

    FILEVERSION version

    Specifies the binary version number for the file. The version consists of two 32-bit integers, defined by four 16-bit integers. For example, "FILEVERSION 3,10,0,61" is translated into two doublewords: 0x0003000a and 0x0000003d, in that order. Therefore, if version is defined by the DWORD values dw1 and dw2, they need to appear in the FILEVERSION statement as follows: HIWORD(dw1), LOWORD(dw1), HIWORD(dw2), LOWORD(dw2).

    PRODUCTVERSION version

    Specifies the binary version number for the product with which the file is distributed. The version parameter is two 32-bit integers, defined by four 16-bit integers.

    FILEFLAGSMASK fileflagsmask

    Specifies which bits in the FILEFLAGS statement are valid. If a bit is set in FILEFLAGMASK, the corresponding bit in FILEFLAGS is valid.

    FILEFLAGS fileflags

    Specifies the Boolean attributes of the file. The fileflags parameter must be the combination of all the file flags that are valid at compile time. For possible values, see Remarks.

    FILEOS fileos

    Specifies the operating system for which this file was designed. The fileos parameter is one of the operating system values listed in Remarks.

    FILETYPE filetype

    Specifies the general type of file. The filetype parameter can be one of the file type values listed in Remarks.

    FILESUBTYPE subtype

    Specifies the function of the file. The subtype parameter is zero unless the type parameter in the FILETYPE statement is VFT_DRV, VFT_FONT, or VFT_VXD. For possible file subtype values, see Remarks.
  • block-statement
    Specifies one or more version-information blocks. A block can contain string information or variable information.

Remarks
