Automatic versioning

Show how to automize versioning by modifing a line in the AssemblyInfo file.

// Modify the AssemblyVersion line in the 
// "AssemblyInfo.cs" file:
 
// Add a "*" to the section you want to increase automatically
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("0.9.0.*")]
 
// Remove this if you add the star
//[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion("1.0.0.0")]
 
// In your windows application you can access the current version
// like this:
MessageBox.Show(this.ProductVersion);
// "this" contains the the current "Form" object.
