Hey,

I'm wondering if you anyone could help me by pointing me in the right direction here.

When compiling an old clipper program using the free version of xHarbour, is it al all possible to set the resulting executable's version metadata?

I'm referring to the properties found under the "Details" tab when you right click the executable and open the properties dialog.

I'm interested in setting the "File version" and/or "Product version" properties.

Thanks!

Ah, figured it out myself :)

I've included a version.rc file in my sources and added it to my xbp file:

[src\version.rc]
MYC_FLAGS =
MYDEFINES =
MYPRG_FLAGS =

Contents of the version.rc file as per the following example:

https://docs.microsoft.com/nl-nl/windows/win32/menurc/versioninfo-resource#examples

Hope this helps anyone else trying to figure out the same thing :)

Cheers!

Thank you for sharing. I didn't know we can use RC file even with
console programs.

Hi all

Thing is, if you put a reference to an icon in the .RC file on a console app, I couldn't find a way to display it properly in the title bar when executing it.

If anyone has a clue is welcome!

Best regards

Hi

Try to use ResourceHacker. This work for me.

if Program name is xmain.exe and the icon name is chef.ico:

REM Icon in Programm einbinden
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Resource Hacker\ResourceHacker.exe" -open ".\xmain.exe" -save ".\xmain.exe" -action addskip -res ".\chef.ico" -mask ICONGROUP,MAINICON,

Hi Claudio,

Please try this:

/* in your main program */

#include "gtinfo.ch" // xHarbour function for ICOn display (it may also
be hbgtinfo.ch)

#define PRGICON 101

Function Main
hb_gtInfo(HB_GTI_ICONRES,PRGICON)

In your .rc file

#define PRGICON 101
PRGICON ICON "youricon.ico"

HTH,

Warm regards,

Jayadev
