File version in filesystem

I'm trying to get the version of a DLL and in general the version of a
file in the filesystem.
I do not find anything using System.IO.FileInfo.
Well, I do not find anything at all...

Any suggestion ?

Thanks in advance,
ema

Hi,

You will have to P/invoke , do a search in google by "file summary" in this
NG, several implementations have been posted here before.

Look at System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo

I had the same need, the answer for me was in :

System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo finfo =
FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(fullFilePath);
