Build Version Increment Add-In Visual Studio

Somehow Visual Studio doesn't come with an option to only auto increment the build version of the AssemblyFileVersion attribute. Sure, by placing an * in the AssemblyVersion attribute and leaving the the AssemblyFileVersion out the compiler will auto generate build versions for both but this is a pain to maintain when you're releasing signed assemblies. Besides I don't feel like grabbing a calculator just to see when version 1.0.3394.25054 has been build. I needed a little more control.

I found use full addin for visual studio on codeplex. Click for more details.

Boiler insurance review said:

I have been using the express editions of Visual Studio to develop my knowledge for a number of months and am beginning to undertake the changeover to the pro version. In advance of this I would like to improve my detailed knowledge of using the tool before I splash a load of cash. My recent experience is as a web programmer with php, mysql, most linux based tools and an amount of flash, now I am moving to a Microsoft package. I am realising it is a big learning curve and am trying to build my awareness with some blog reading. The phrase " Build Version Increment Add In Visual Studio " in your post got me interested. I feel the Visual Studio tutorial web sites are frequently inflexible and mention the same points looking like an online manual. Comments and dialog in web logs can address genuine methods to beat problems which leads me through the learning curve more quickly. Thank you for the note.
