Change dproj file and product version

the future of starts demands massive productivity

Author: Rubén Pozo

If you have a project with automatic builds is posible that you want change the File/Product version of the file.

Using the code below you can create a console application for to modify these values easily.

program ChangeVersion;

{$APPTYPE CONSOLE}
{$R *.res}

uses
  System.SysUtils,
  UnParseDproj in 'UnParseDproj.pas';

procedure ChangeDprojVersion;
var
  DprojParser : TDprojParser;
begin
  DprojParser := TDprojParser.Create;
  try
    DprojParser.DprojFile := ParamStr(1);
    DprojParser.VersionString := ParamStr(2);
    DprojParser.ChangeVersion;
  finally
    DprojParser.Free;
  end;
end;

begin
  try
    if ParamCount < 2 then
    begin
      WriteLn('Wrong syntax. Usage:');
      WriteLn('ChangeVersion "Delphi project file (dproj)" "Version string(x.x.x.x)"');
    end
  else
    begin
      ChangeDprojVersion;
    end;

  except
    on E: Exception do
      WriteLn(E.ClassName, ': ', E.Message);
  end;

end.
unit UnParseDproj;

      procedure SetVersionString(const Value: string);
