Dll Version

Hi,

Just a simple question :

I have developped a Dll in visual C++ 6 And I would to show the Dll Version in my About windows of my VB project.

So, What I search is an API to get the Dll version.

I tried to search in the french version of msdn without success.

Thanks in advance,
Laurent VOISIN.

The following windows API calls would give you the version number of your DLL

GetFileVersionInfoSize()
GetFileVersionInfo()

Hope this helps

Hi,

Thank you for response, it work fine.

I would like now to find the version of a Dll in memory.

The system information viewer show me the version of certain Dll, So I would like to know how it is done ?

Thank you in advance,
Laurent.

The only way I think you may be able to manage this is by getting the path to the dll from the list of dlls loaded by the process. However, I have no idea how easy this would be using VB. If you understand C++ then there is an article for finding which processes are locking a given DLL it should be possible to use this code to find which DLLs are loaded into memory and then get their path and filename to get the version.
