VER_FILENAME.VER

Please see the "options for commands" section of this manual for general information about the use of macros for configuration.

Normally the name of a version file is based on the name of the MSI script, for example if you are building "An MSI.mm" MAKEMSI will expect your version file to be named "An MSI.ver" (in the same directory).

This macro allows you to specify an alternative location or name, if a relative path is supplied it is relative to the directory containing the script.

As the version file can refer to macros it is possible that you have a common template vers file where most of all of the information is supplied by macros.

EXAMPLE

#define  VER_FILENAME.VER  TryMe.Ver
#include "ME.MMH"                       ;;Load MAKEMSI support
