Get Version of exe via PHP

Question

Is getting the version of a exe possible with php? I\'d like to print the version of a file that can be downloaded...

Windows exe and php is running on linux server<

Answer 1

I wrote a small code that will pull the file version directly from the executable.

PHP:

"F\x00i\x00l\x00e\x00V\x00e\x00r\x00s\x00i\x00o\x00n",'end'=>"\x00\x00\x00");
    if (file_exists($file) && is_readable($file)) {
        $version = file_get_contents($file);
        $version = explode($parser_model['begin'], $version);
        $version = explode($parser_model['end'], $version[1]);
        $version = str_replace("\x00", null, $version[1]);
        return ((!empty($version) ? "\x1b[32m$file version: $version\x1b[0m" : "\x1b[31mNo version\x1b[0m"));
    } else {
        print "\x1b[31m".(is_dir($file) ? "Specified path points to a directory, not a file." : "The specified path to the file may not exist or is not a file at all.")."\x1b[0m";
        return false;
    }
}

@print exeparser_fileversion($argv[1]);

?>

Windows command (optional):

@php "%~dp0\exeparser.php" %*

Result:
