FinalBuilder: Add Build Number, Current Date, Time and Subversion revision to output executable version info


I want to set output executable InternalName something like that:

ProgramName_build_300_rev_100_201303141324.exe

where:

  • 300 - build number
  • 100 - latest subversion revision
  • 201303141324 - date/tame of build

Solution

  • This is no problem at all in FinalBuilder. But you have to collect these information first, store it in variables and copy/rename the resulting file.

    • You can get the revision number (last changed revision) with the svn info action
    • There is an action for date/time info, with which you can get your timestamp

    As a last step, rename the file, using the variables in the name, e.g. ProgamName_build_%build%rev%rev%_%timestamp%.exe
