问题
Given this snippet from Blah.dll's AssemblyInfo.cs:
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("3.3.3.3")]
[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion("2.2.2.2")]
And then in a separate .exe:
var fileInfo = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo("/path/to/Blah.dll");
fileInfo.ProductVersion == fileInfo.FileVersion == true;
Other SO questions show ProductVersion being "correct", curious if there is something odd about how I'm using it.
Shouldn't ProductVersion be "3.3.3.3" and FileVersion be "2.2.2.2"? What would cause it to report both properties as AssemblyFileVersion?
回答1:
I found the answer originally here. I'm repeating the details for ease of reference.
There are three 'versions' that can be included in the AssemblyInfo.cs file:
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.1.1.1")]
[assembly: AssemblyInformationalVersion("2.2.2.2")]
[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion("3.3.3.3")]
AssemblyInformationalVersion defaults to AssemblyFileVersion if it is not specified. Likewise, AssemblyInformationalVersion and AssemblyFileVersion default to AssemblyVersion if both are not specified.
In your example, the AssemblyInfo.cs file did not include AssemblyInformationalVersion, so it defaults to the value of AssemblyFileVersion. As you will see below, AssemblyInformationalVersion maps to the FileVersionInfo.ProductVersion property, which explains why the test returns true.
Obviously, there are a couple of frustrating aspects to this. First, there is no way (that I know of) to set the AssemblyInformationalVersion from Visual Studio. You have to modify the AssemblyInfo.cs file directly to include this attribute. Second, AssemblyInformationalVersion maps to the FileVersionInfo.ProductVersion property, which is non-intuitive. The attribute should more properly be named AssemblyProductVersion. And apparently, a title is also a description, etc.
That said, how do we retrieve these (and related) values in code? Like this:
AssemblyFileVersion => System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.FileVersion AssemblyInformationalVersion => System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.ProductVersion AssemblyVersion => System.Reflection.Assembly.Version /// others... AssemblyTitle => System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.FileDescription AssemblyDescription => System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.Comments AssemblyProduct => System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.ProductName AssemblyCompany => System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.CompanyName AssemblyCopyright => System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.LegalCopyright AssemblyTrademark => System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.LegalTrademarks
In the case of AssemblyVersion, use this:
string ver = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString();
