BuildNumberInc is an application to auto-increment the build number of a C/C++ project
This repository is archived because I have no use for this application any more.
Add the executable and the arguments to the pre-build step of your IDE.
If the build number is declared as a #define no flags are needed. If the build number is declared as a const use the -c flag. If you want to use only LF (and not CRLF) as line endings in the source file use -r flag. If you want to see the changed build number add the -v flag.
In project properties -> C/C++ Build -> Settings -> Build Steps -> Pre-build steps -> Command
for a #define set:
<path_to_BuildNumberInc.exe>\BuildNumberInc.exe -v <path_to_file>\version.h SW_VER_BUILD
for a const set:
<path_to_BuildNumberInc.exe>\BuildNumberInc.exe -c -v <path_to_file>\version.h verBuildNo_0
#ifndef VERSION_H
#define VERSION_H
#define SW_VER_MAJOR 1
#define SW_VER_MINOR 8
#define SW_VER_BUILD 28 // build number
namespace YourNamespace {
const unsigned int verBuildNo_0 = 14; // a comment
const uint16_t verBuildNo_1 = 27; // another comment
} // namespace
#endif // VERSION_H
BuildNumberInc is a simple package so, if you have Go installed and
added to your path, just type go build
in the source directory.
