Getting the actual version number to show

Hello,

Using WB24. I need the exeinfo command that will give me the version as circled in the image



Using exeinfo(exeversion) gives me 24.0.155.3 which is the current version of WB24 itself.

Thanks and regards

Since the image doesn't show above, I have attached it here.

thanks once again

issah

it is exeinfo, but with the option to get the version from a WDL (see help)... and the wdl file is projectname.wdl

Hi Argus

Looking through the help for WB26 I can't see any option to get the version from a WDL. I've tried exeinfo(exeversion, myprojectname.wdl) and it doesn't work. Do you remember what the option for a WDL is?

Try with the ComponentInfo function.

Good idea Paulo, but doesn't work as the component shares the project context.

I have tested ot in windev 22 (the only one i have available right now) and it works with this code:
Program version: "+ExeInfo(exeVersion)+" WDL Version: "+ComponentInfo("", ciVersion, Replace(Upper(ExeInfo(exeName)),".EXE",".WDL"))

Thanks for that. Unfortunately doesn't work in V26.

I checked, as the memory is the first thing to go and the correct syntax is

ComponentInfo("",ciVersion,"WDLName.wdl")

Potential problems:
- will not work in test mode as there is no generated wdl in that mode (at least till you publish at least once).. You can do a false publication to generate the wdl
- NAME of the wdl (may not be the name of the project, check in the directories)
- FOLDER of the wdl (between awp and non awp modes, the notion of 'currentdirectory' may be different), so you MAY need to prefix the wdl name with ..\ or something like that

except for that, works fine in all versions

Thanks Argus. I went back and checked the code and now have it working.
