Hello

The built in packager is an awesome tool. I would however request that we be able to set the EXE file properties such as file version etc.

I currently can set #PackagerProperty: IconFile = ..\Files\icon.ico, so would it be difficult to do #PackagerProperty: FileVersion = 1.0.0.1

The complete list of properties :
CompanyName
FileDescription
FileVersion
LegalCopyright
OriginalFilename
ProductName
ProductVersion

Regards (fingers crossed)

John.

Will be included in the next beta:
B4X: 
#PackagerProperty: AssemblyTitle = This is the title
#PackagerProperty: AssemblyDescription = Description
#PackagerProperty: AssemblyCompany = Cool company
#PackagerProperty: AssemblyProduct = Cool product
#PackagerProperty: AssemblyVersion = 1.2.3.0

And:
B4X: 
#PackagerProperty: RequireAdministrator = True

Two questions:
1. Any reason not to allow setting the text of the Copyright notice as well?
2. Will these be applied to the exe in the ...\Build\ folder, the one in the ...Build\Bin\ folder, or both?

You can pass all of the .Net fields: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/assembly/set-attributes
B4X: 
#PackagerProperty: AssemblyCopyrightAttribute = Copyright string
As long as it starts with Assembly, it will be added as an assembly attribute.

Only to the one in the Build folder.
