VFP AGETFILEVERSION() Function returns similar data.
See also Version Information article on MSDN.
The presence of OleSelfRegister in the version resource means that the file (DLL or EXE) can self-register itself. The developer decides whether to add this string to the version information.
Since all information resources are enumerated in a method of the class, there is no apparent need in using the VerQueryValue API call. |
