Properties of the generated .exe file
Hi to Everybody
A small problem ...
When I right-click the .exe file generated and click properties....
I have a tab with "details".
Inside that I can found a lot of informations like "version info", "product name", "Copyright" "Language" ... etc.
How can I set these values ?
I look for .rc files... but I was'nt able to obtain something.
Is it there somebody who knows how to ?
Thank you to all

Re: Properties of the generated .exe file
Carlos,
This gives compile errors when I add it to my existing RC file.
The error says:
_temp.rc:3:0: fatal error: when writing output to : Invalid argument
compilation terminated.
windres: _temp.rc:71: syntax error
windres: preprocessing failed.
Any idea what's wrong?
Greetings, Serge

{
BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
{
BLOCK "080904b0"

In this HMG Wishlist message Grigory says "problem with MinGW resource manager".
Is indicating to use ResHaker utility to edit VERSIONINFO.
