Update a project's Application Version and/or Minimum Required Version.
There are three options available for updating the Application Version:
- Do not update Application Version - Application Version will not be updated, will use the value supplied in the project file.
- Revision only - The Major.Minor.Build numbers will be supplied by the project file. Only the revision number will be changed. This will be user-supplied in a text field, and can be a variable.
- Custom Application Version - Set a completely custom Application Version number. Can be a variable or set of variables.
There are three options available for updating the Minimum Required Version:
- Do not update Minimum Required Version - Minimum Required Version will not be updated, will use the value supplied in the project file.
- Same as Application Version - Sets Minimum Application Version to the same value as the Application Version, even if the Application Version is not updated.
- Custom Minimum Required Version - Set a completely custom Minimum Required Version number. Can be a variable or set of variables.
Reads the project file and creates variables from the Application Version, available in a number of formats:
Version.Major
Version.Minor
Version.Build
Version.Patch (same as Version.Build)
Version.Revision
Version.MajorMinor
Version.MajorMinorBuild
Version.MajorMinorPatch
Version.MajorMinorBuildRevision
Version.MajorMinorPatchRevision
Version.Full (same as Version.MajorMinorBuildRevision)
An optional prefix can be set so that the task can be used on multiple projects. If the prefix is set to Fabrikam then the Application Version variable can be added to another task as $(Fabrikam.Version.Full).
Pick your vbproj or csproj file, then pick the property you want to modify, and set its value.
