In the AssemblyInfo.cs page of a ASP.NET project, there is a defaulted
property of:
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")]
It's my understanding that this indicates a Major Version of 1, a Minor
Version of 0, and a Build and Revision that increment on their own. I could
modify the minor and major number above as it made "logical sense". Three
related questions:
1. Under what circumstances does the Build automatically increment?
2. Why does the revision increment by a 100+ each time I rebuild my
solution? Why not ... by one?
3. Will the code below display the correct related information ... or am I
misinterpreting their meaning by displaying them in this way (for internal
purposes)?
Thanks in advance!

System.Reflection.Assembly MyAssembly =
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
System.Version AppVersion = MyAssembly.GetName().Version;
string MyVersion = AppVersion.Major.ToString()
+ "." + AppVersion.Minor.ToString()
+ "." + AppVersion.Build.ToString()
+ "." + AppVersion.Revision.ToString();
Response.Write("Version: " + MyVersion);
