(SST) ShlWAPIFunctionInfo Version 1.0 |
|---|---|
| Developer Reference |
| Retrieves the binary version number of the VS_FIXEDFILEINFO record/structure from within the version information resources of a Windows executable. |
| Scope |
|---|
| Protected (i.e. the method can only be accessed from code in a descendant class or the unit it which it is implemented). |
| Syntax | |
|---|---|
| Function RetResourceStrucVersion() : DWORD; | |
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| None | |
| Return Values |
|---|
| Returns an unsigned, 32 bit, integer value that represents the major and minor version numbers of the record/structure, in the high- and low-order words respectively (e.g. if the returned value were $00030002 (0x00030002), $0003 (0x0003) would be the major version and $0002 (0x0002) the minor version). |
| Remarks |
|---|
| The necessity for the "dwStrucVersion" member arises from the internal organization of the Windows Portable Executable (PE) file format, which makes different VS_FIXEDFILEINFO versions conceivable. However, we have not yet encountered or are aware of the existence, of versions other than 1.0. |
| The function merely returns the "dwStrucVersion" member/field of the ResourceFixedFileInfo property. |
| The returned value is not available in form of a separate property. |
| Requirements | |
|---|---|
| Unit | (Declared and implemented in) SSTNewUnit.pas |
| Library | SSTNewUnit.dcu/SSTNewUnit.obj |
| Unicode | Implemented as ANSI version only. |
