iphone - Build information in iOS Application (date/time app was built)

Question

I'm looking for a way to dynamically add in information about the application during the build process of an iOS application.

During testing, it would be great to know when the application I have installed on my device was built and possibly who built it would be a good to know as well.

I'm envisioning a section in settings.app that would give basic build information for debugging purposes. I don't want to have to manually update a build information file before each build - the data should be generated dynamically.

You can also use standard macro __DATE__ which will result string like "Jun 25 1980" of course with proper current date of build.
