Make VS 2022 VERSIONINFO is not incremented

[kinook]

The .bld file, the .vxcproj file, the .sln (if that is what you're building), and the .rc files in the project.

Find enclosed the requested files.
Currently we build only the Release|x64 configurations.

Your projects are referencing

$(DefaultPlatformToolset)

which the Make VS action doesn't know about.

<OutDir>..\..\bin\$(DefaultPlatformToolset)\$(Configuration)\</OutDir>

The value would vary depending on the version of Visual Studio that is performing the build. It looks like the default for VS 2022 is v143.

What you can do is add a Set Macro step before the Make VS action to set DefaultPlatformToolset = v143 with 'Add to environment variables...' checked, and the Make VS action will do the replacement on the VS variable from the environment variable. If the executable is created in that path, the action will be able to detect the change for incrementing.

I will try to change the build script but will you support $(DefaultPlatformToolset) in a future release?
All our libraries are using this macro, because they are built with/for different compiler versions.

TIA

Hi;

Sorry for the delayed reply.
I tried both - new DLL and the macro workaround - but both of them do not work! What I found out so far is: When compiling any of the 32-bit configuration ithe version number is increased, but as soon as we create a 64-bit configuration, the increment is not performed.
As I mentioned before, we exclusively build only 64-bit configurations.
