I'm trying to do something which is very easy to do in the regular MSVC, but not supported easily in VC++ Express.
There is no resource editor in VC++ Express. So I added a file named version.rc into my DLL project. The file has the below content, which is compiled by the resource compiler and added to the final DLL. This resource is viewable in the DLL using reshacker, though not when right-clicking the DLL in Windows Explorer.
What is missing from my RC file to make it appear when right-clicking?
VS_VERSION_INFO VERSIONINFO
FILEVERSION 1,0,0,1
PRODUCTVERSION 1,0,0,1
FILEFLAGSMASK 0x17L
#ifdef _DEBUG
FILEFLAGS 0x1L
#else
FILEFLAGS 0x0L
#endif
FILEOS 0x4L
FILETYPE 0x1L
FILESUBTYPE 0x0L
BEGIN
BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
BEGIN
BLOCK "040904b0"
BEGIN
VALUE "FileDescription", "something Application"
VALUE "FileVersion", "1, 0, 0, 1"
VALUE "InternalName", "something"
VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Copyright (C) 2008 Somebody"
VALUE "OriginalFilename", "something.exe"
VALUE "ProductName", "something Application"
VALUE "ProductVersion", "1, 0, 0, 1"
END
END
BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
BEGIN
VALUE "Translation", 0x409, 1200
END
END
