How to add version info to Cmdlets pssnapin

Question

I am creating a cmdlets module by inheriting the CustomPSSnapin class. I have created getter methods for properties like Name, Vendor and Descriptor. Now I want to add version info to this snapin module. How do I do this?

Answer 1

You can do this by creating a manifest for your PowerShell module.

Here is a Microsoft MSDN article explaining PowerShell modules manifests.

You will most likely use the New-ModuleManifest cmdlet to generate your manifest. Use the -ModuleToProcess switch to specify the .dll file you built.
