Fairly new to PowerGen, hope someone can help.
When I was compiling my code in Powerbuilder, I would set the application 'description' in the 'Version' tab of the PB project. 'Description' was one of several properties of the application that you could set in the PB project.
Where can I set this description in PowerGen? I don't see it in Options. Using ver 7.0 for PB 11.
Hi Rick,
I believe this has been answered via e-mail.
PowerGen is shipped with a utility called VersionEdit that lets you edit version resources in Windows executables, including PB EXEs (which don't conform to the Windows standard). VersionEdit has a GUI and a command line interface. It can be easily integrated into your build scripts.
VersionEdit can be applied to any Windows executables and has substantially more function then is available with PB.
Regards,
Phil
Has there been any progress in getting VersionEdit integrated into PowerGen itself?
If you want to use the integrated code signing, it obviously renders VersionEdit useless as you cannot change the .exe after it has been signed, and you cannot call VersionEdit while the build is still running.
Both are great tools, but they are currently an either/or choice.
