B4J Question Displaying Version / Release

[Peter Lewis]

I am sure that this has been a requirement before.

I want to put on the main page of my app the Version number and release with every time I compile that release number will increment.

One way I thought of it was to ready the time/date stamp of the program file on entering the program and use that as a release number.

Any ideas ?

Thank you

Thank you,

I added it to my app and every time I run the app the Version number increases which is not what I was looking for . Every time it compiles the build number should change

#Sat Dec 21 16:36:02 CAT 2024
autoversion=10.0
time=1734791762699

is what the txt file contains

I added this so I will always know which version I have running onsite

MainForm.Title="Durban Cubana by Peter Lewis 071 674 3132  Version "&DateTime.Time(File.LastModified("C:\CubanaDurban\Program","release")) &" - " &DateTime.Date(File.LastModified("C:\CubanaDurban\Program","release"))

You can also use this;


Thread 'b4x_cba (B4X Custom Build Action)'
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x_cba-b4x-custom-build-action.164556/

And then just read the version.txt file to get the version number. There is also a method for build time.
