Build?

[Emo]

I have a question about when you see an application and it the about box or somewhere else, it says i.e. "Build: 3245". What does that mean? I've seen this in ICQ and other applictions...

Thanks!

I think each time they compile the executable they give it a build number, and whichever one they finally settled on and distributed, that's the version you get.

If you go to:
Project > [Project] Properties > Make
You'll see a frame that has 3 textboxes.
The values in these textboxes represent the version of the app.
Major . Minor . Build (Revision)
The build number is like a Minor Minor.
If you check the checkbox that says "Auto Increment" then every time you compile your app the number in the Revision textbox will increment by one.
It's a part of the version of the app.
