AssemblyVersionAttribute Constructor
Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyVersionAttribute class with the version number of the assembly being attributed.
Namespace: System.Reflection
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- version
- Type: System.String
The version number of the attributed assembly.
The format of the version string is: major. minor. build. revision.
When specifying a version, you have to at least specify major. If you specify major and minor, you can specify an asterisk (*) for build. This will cause build to be equal to the number of days since January 1, 2000 local time, and for revision to be equal to the number of seconds since midnight local time, divided by 2.
If you specify major, minor, and build, you can specify an asterisk for revision. This will cause revision to be equal to the number of seconds since midnight local time, divided by 2.
Examples of valid version strings include:
1
1.1
1.1.*
1.1.1
1.1.1.*
1.1.1.1
Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core Role not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core Role supported with SP1 or later; Itanium not supported)
