A version info resource will enable the Windows operating system to determine
meta information about your executable. This information is displayed in various
locations. For example, when opening the property dialog for the executable in the
Windows explorer, a "Version" tab will be present in the property dialog if
you have chosen to generate the version info resource.
The version info resource consists of several pieces of information.
If you check Generate version info resource, there are several
fields whose values must be entered in the text fields on this step. Note
that the "original file name", the "company name", the "product name" and
the "product version" fields in the version info resource are filled in
automatically by install4j.
-
File version
If you want to specify a version for the file which is a different from the product version,
you can do it here. If this field is left empty, the product version entered on the
Application Info tab of the
General Settings step will be used
for the file version.
