AssemblyInfo.jsl


AssemblyInfo.jsl Avid J# Programmer

vj#: I love this feature of VS.NET, it creates a neat extra tab in the exe's
properties which shows extra information, like the people who created the
program, versioning and such.

Is there a way to enable/disable the feature though? I'm having trouble with
this because it works only for some of my projects, they're all windows forms
applications in J#. Perhaps i am moving the "AssemblyInfo.jsl" file around or
somthing? Anyway, once it stops working (ie: adding the extra tab in the
exe's properties) is there a way to make it work again? I'm wondering if a
VS.NET macro handles this procedure, or is it hidden somewhere inside the
project settings? I'd really like to re-enable this feature in my projects,
please help =D

thank you in advance

Well, I suppose it just stopped working by itself. It might have been because
i moved the file around and VS.NET just decided to give up on locating it.
Right now, for the projects that it doesn't work for, the AssemblyInfo.jsl is
where it shouhld be, in the same directory as all the main files, like the
vjsproj and sln files. I could paste those, even though i havn't found any
information in those regarding anything relateded to AssemblyInfo.jsl

I have figured out though that it seems to work only for 'Release' builds
and not debug builds. Is there some sort of on/off switch i can use to make
it use the AssemblyInfo file on debug builds as well? (maybe use the the
release build, but have it debug anyway?)

Also, is there a way, without the use of an external program, to add tabs in
the exe's properties in Visual Studio. NET manually?

The AssemblyInfo.jsl file does not have to be in a specific location.
Actually it is not even mandatory, you can take the contents of this file
and paste it into one of the projet's .jsl files and things will work the
same. This file just defines a set of attributes, and the compiler does not
care about where these attribute definitions have been placed in your
source, as long as they are in one of the project's source files.

On the other hand, you must make sure that the AssemblyInfo.jsl file is
included in the project if you move it around. Explore your solution inside
VS .NET and verify that the AssemblyInfo.jsl file shows up somewhere under
every project. If it does not, activate the "Show all files" option (icon at
the top of the solution browser) and include it into your project.

Bruno.
