AssemblyVersion & AssemblyFileVersion!

[rajivraj]

Hi,

I need to update the AssemblyVersion & AssemblyFileVersion before build. I can find the feature in "Make VS.NET" action. Unfortunately, I cannot give different values for the 2 attributes!

The help mentions a workaround of creating a dummy step with "No build" checked. This works, but isnt a graceful! My build builds abt 150 projects and obviously, I dont want to create another 150 "dummy" steps!

Any suggestions?

Cheers!
Rajiv

Put the two Make VS.NET steps in a subroutine and replace the individual Make VS.NET steps with a Subroutine Call step to call that subroutine. You may also want to consider creating one or a few multi-project solutions in VS.NET and building those from VBP rather than each individual project.
