I am trying to create a build process using MSBuild that will build my
multiple projects all with the same AssemblyVersion and
AssemblyFileVer sion. I have tried using the AssemblyInfo task from the
community tasks projects ( http://msbuildtasks.tigris.org/) and the
AssemblyInfoTas k from the MSBuild blog
( http://www.gotdotnet.com/codegallery...-16107919f93e).
My scenario is this: I have several project files, each within their
own sub-directory. I want to have one MSBuild file that I can set the
version number manually and build. I want all the output DLLS to have
that version number and be placed into a single folder.
This has to be common in the community, but cannot find any
good/working examples.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

On a side note, if anyone can show me how to get some property values
from the main MSBuild file, and some property values from each
individual project file, that would be great...but not my main concern. 2  8150

Hi,
I am not a MSBuild specialist, but I think that VS2005 generates
MSBuild project files, right ? In VS, you can add an existing file to a
project the usual way, or as a link which is a good way to share the
same code across projects (like parts of AssemblyInfo attributes...).
It looks like this in one of my projects :
<Compile Include="..\Ver sion.cs">
<Link>Propertie s\Version.cs</Link>
</Compile>
Hope this helps.

Thank you so much. Such a simple answer. I can't believe I didn't
think of it.

Hi,
I have two projects where I want to use the same source file in each

If I add the file to each project, then a local copy is made.
I want to be able to have a single source file used by both projects so
that I only have to change one file.
I am using compiler directives within the file, and so I can't just

In my assembly.vb files, I'm using the revision/build wildcard style:
<Assembly: AssemblyVersion("3.0.*")>
<Assembly: AssemblyFileVersion("3.0.*")>
This onkly seems to work in projects that were originally created under
VS.Net 2003. The proper version number is generated as expected, assembly
version and file version of the compiled executable are both
3.0.xxxx.yyyyy.

In the Assembly Information, you can set the assembly version and the
file version. What is the difference between the two? The
documentation is not exactly helpful in this area.
I had the assembly version set to a unique number, and just left the
file version as 0.0.0.0. My program crashed on another computer, and
the windows error report stated: "AppVer: 0.0.0.0", so I am thinking
maybe the file version is more important (unless...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
