In WinForms I have an AssemblVersion
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("01.01.01.002")]
However when the splash screen comes up it completely ignores the zeros showing:
1.1.1.2
as the version which is very inconvenient since later I will actually want to have an assembly version
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("01.01.01.200")]
Is there a way to avoid this or do I Have to add some number at the beginning of last part of the version like so:
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("01.01.01.102")]
The AssemblyVersion attribute stores it's information as a Version object. The components of the Version struct are integers, and are treated as such. So 1.2.3.4 == 1.02.003.004 but 1.2.3.4 != 1.2.3.400
You can use the AssemblyInformationalVersionAttribute to provide aditional, arbitrarily formatted information about your product, as it's information is stored as a string, rather than a Version. So you can do:
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.1.1.102")]
[assembly: AssemblyInformationalVersion("v.01 alpha")]
Or whatever you like
