How to check an assembly's version?

Tee
Hi,

How can we check an assembly's version that is created in .NET?

I have tried to load the assembly using
System.Reflecti on.Assembly.Loa dFile and

GetCustomAttrib utes - AssemblyFileVer sionAttribute, but couldn't get the
proper data, some of assemblies seem doesn't have
AssemblyFileVer sionAttribute.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Tee

If you want to know the version of your assembly you can use:

Assembly.GetAss embly(typeof(Fo rm1)).GetName() .Version.ToStri ng()

Where Form1 is a class defined in the assembly you want to know the version
of.
If you want to know the framework the application is using you could use a
class defined in the framework like:

Assembly.GetAss embly(typeof(in t)).GetName().V ersion.ToString ()

Try

using System.Reflecti on;

Assembly.GetExe cutingAssembly( ).GetName().Ver sion.ToString()

I am just writing an app that will be used internally. What I would like it to do is to check the version of an exe on a server is different to the current one. I have managed to get the assembly version for the app executing, but I don't know how to read the version info for a file on a network share. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: 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,...
