How do I find the current time and date at compilation time in .net/C# application?

Question

I want to include the current time and date in a .net application so I can include it in the start up log to show the user what version they have. Is it possible to retrieve

Answer 1

You could use PostSharp to weave in the date immediately post-build. PostSharp comes with a lightweight aspect-oriented programming library, but it can be extended to weave in anything you need in a wide variety of ways. It works at the IL level, but the API abstracts you a bit from that.
