.NET, Visual Studio 2008, SVN - Reading version number at compile time?

Question

Does anyone know if there is a way to access the solution / project version number from SVN and include it in the application code at compile time?

thanks

Answer 1

Disclaimer: I was a member of the project at the time of this writing. Although, I still recommend AutoBuildVersion.

Yes, AutobuildVersion and SVN PlugIn provide this functionality.

Answer 2

Assume your SVN version is the same as the project build version

System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version.Revision 

or, for some assembly that has sometype

 System.Reflection.Assembly.GetAssembly(typeof(SomeType)).GetName().Version.Revision
