Version question

A customer reported this to me as their version:
PLATFORM: ASP.NET
VERSION: 7.0.0
BUILD: 11659
Shouldn't AC7 be reporting version 7.0.2 for build 11659?

Yes it must show proper version. Did your customer made a clean install of 7.0.2 or upgraded from an older build?

They've been around for a while - I'll ask but I'm guessing they are an upgrade.

OOPs, two posts by accident.

I've got a client showing that also- might be a mutual client- he uses your QuickBooks mod. He had asked his hoster about doing an upgrade but hadn't heard from them. I thought maybe they did the upgrade and didn't tell him, but I don't know why there would be a discrepancy like that.
Here is what his VersionInfo.xml file shows
<VersionInfo>
<Platform>ASP.NET</Platform>
<Version>7.0.0</Version>
<BuildNumber>11659</BuildNumber>
<BuildDate>2/9/2009</BuildDate>
</VersionInfo>
His CommerceBuilder.dll is 7.0.10752.0 and that file is showing a modified date of 2/9/09. His CommerceBuilder.Web.dll is showing a modified date of 2/9/09, but the other bin files that came with Able are dated 11/18/08 or previously.

Joe,

If they upgraded to Service Release 3 for 7.0.0 (from 2/10/09), then it will show that version and that build as well.

Hmm. The build number reflects the version of source control that the assembly was created from. We use SVN for source control and the revision number is shared across all products in the 7.x line. So in that instance, the new release and the service release were created at the same time. Would it help if there was an indicator of service release or something? Like this?

PLATFORM: ASP.NET
VERSION: 7.0.0 SR3
BUILD: 11659

We could also include an additional element in the VersionInfo.xml file to indicate service release. Let me know your thoughts... I want third party components like yours to be able to reliably determine the version.
