Description James Richardson 2009-01-07 08:09:14 UTC

Looking at the Properties for the Windows EXE file, I see there is no Version String.

Also, may of the other property values are NULL

Comment 1 James Richardson 2009-01-07 08:10:49 UTC

The Windows INSTALL file is also has properties set to NULL

Comment 2 James Richardson 2009-01-07 08:25:44 UTC

Windows Version Setting > Advanced > About is also NULL (7.3 r0)

Comment 4 Chris Owens 2009-03-16 09:46:00 UTC

We are now planning to make a 7.3.3 release.  Please review your bugs (all marked open against 7.3.3) to see if they can be fixed in the next few weeks, or if they should be retargeted for 7.4 or future.

Thanks!

This adds the program name and version to the properties.  It also names the setup file according to the repo version.  To capture the repo revision number would require a build script to capture svn info output and edit the setup VersionInfoVersion and OutputBaseFilename values.

I imagine this would be some variation of the buildme.pl script in the slim repo.  Can't really offer more help there as it would require more knowledge of and access to the build machine.
