Edit Property’s Value Source Dialog

Edit Property’s Value Source

This feature enables you to automatically set the value of a property from a value contained by a file from disk.

The value of the property is updated when loading the .AIP project, when the value is edited from EditProperty dialog and at build time.

If the property’s value cannot be updated at build time, the build will be stopped!

General

• File Version from an EXE or DLL from disk
• File Version from an EXE or DLL from project
• Assembly version from an EXE or DLL from disk
• Assembly version from an EXE or DLL from project
• Entry from an INI file
• Value from a JSON file

File Path

Pick the file using the […] button.

Value
