The way to get around that is to build the logic in to your Nant file, so it only calls the version task when you want the version number to be incremented.
For example, if you have a solution of many projects, and only want to increment the version number if a project has to be recompiled, so you don't increment ALL the projects' version when only one project's source has been modified. What you can do is use the uptodate task to check if your source files are newer then files in the obj directry, if so, call the version task, otherwise the version task will not be called. When the version task is not called you can use the loadfile task to read the current version number, so it can be injected into the AssemblyInfo.* file if you like.

(i.e. without altering the version number). The "version" task is excellent, except that I cannot get it to leave the version number "as-is". It either increments the BuildNumber or the RevisionNumber. You can specify 'NoIncrement' for the build number, but not for the RevisionNumber. Has anybody got a better suggestion or an alternative ?? Thanks, Bruce. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
