I need to be able to programatically get the version info from a
windows DLL preferably in the same format as what is displayed in the
properties tab.
I was overjoyed to find Mark Hammond's Python Extensions
(http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/) The package includes a
little demo program "filevers.py" distributed in the win32api download
that does exactly what I need.
Unfortunately I get this error when I execute the script:
C:\work>getfilever.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\work\getfilever.py", line 8, in ?
d=win32api.GetFileVersionInfo(fname, '\\')
pywintypes.error: (1812, 'GetFileVersionInfo:GetFileVersionInfoSize',
'The specified image file did not contain a resource section.')
Anybody know what this means, or more importantly, if there is a
work-around? "fname", in the code snippit above, contains the name of
a DLL compiled with MS Visual Studio .NET 2003.
Thanks,
