Auto increment build number

[lo-fi]

Evening all!

Is there a way to add a build number to a project in VS which auto increments every time you hit the build button and gives an accessible variable that can be printed to the KSP log? I'm sure I've seen to something like that mentioned, but I can't find any reference to it now.

Thanks, as always

See this link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/826777/how-to-have-an-auto-incrementing-version-number-visual-studio for a few methods to change the AssemblyVersion attribute. Once you have an incrementing system in place, you can get the version number programatically with something like:

string version = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version

Thank you, that looks promising
