更改我的NSIS安装程序应用程序版本

Question

I am updating an existing application and want to set the new Application Version Number. I used the !define VERSION "Version Number" but the application still retains the previous Version number. I have also been going through NSIS SourceForge in search of the solution but none that could show and then change the Version Number. The Version Number i want to show is 2.1.1259.1 but it keeps returning the old 2.0.236.1258

The code looks as follows:

; HM NIS Edit Wizard helper defines
!define PRODUCT_NAME "Application Name"
!define PRODUCT_VERSION "2.1.1259.1"
!define VERSION "2.1.1259.1"
!define PRODUCT_PUBLISHER "CompanyName"
!define PRODUCT_WEB_SITE "http://www.CompanyName.com"
!define PRODUCT_DIR_REGKEY "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\${PRODUCT_NAME}"
!define PRODUCT_UNINST_KEY "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\${PRODUCT_NAME}"
!define PRODUCT_UNINST_ROOT_KEY "HKLM"

sectionEnd

I realize there are a lot of !include but to save question space I left them out for now but if you think the problem may be hidden in one of them I will add that specific .nsh file. Any help would be appreciated in the end.

Answer 1

PRODUCT_VERSION is just a define with no special meaning to the compiler, the VI* attributes are used to set the version information in NSIS.

The version information is stored both in a binary block and as readable strings . The binary block information is controlled by the VIProductVersion and VIFileVersion attributes and the string information is set with VIAddVersionKey . These attributes are not even present in the code you posted so they must be in one of the .nsh files? Perhaps you are setting them in more than one place?

It should look something like this:

!define PRODUCT_VERSION "2.1.1259.1"
!define VERSION "2.1.1259.1"

VIProductVersion "${PRODUCT_VERSION}"
VIFileVersion "${VERSION}"
VIAddVersionKey "FileVersion" "${VERSION}"
VIAddVersionKey "LegalCopyright" "(C) Blah blah Inc."
VIAddVersionKey "FileDescription" "Blah blah blergh fancy app"

If you are still getting the wrong values after verifying that you are not setting the information in multiple places then perhaps Explorer is caching the information. You can inspect the raw version information with a tool like Resource Hacker ...
