Check this checkbox, if you want that your setup executable file has information about the program version.

At this moment, you can use only #ver# during the installation process. I think we will add the using of $ver$ at the nearest time. In this case, you will be able to specify $appname$_$ver$.exe, but $appname$ you should define yourself in the Menu - Tools - Global Variables or Project - Setup Builder.

How is the Status of:

"At this moment, you can use only #ver# during the installation process. I think we will add the using of $ver$ at the nearest time."

Have you implemented it?

At the moment I have created a workaround, which is very annoying. In this a self-developed application is started, which reads out the version number of the "In_Setup_App.exe", parses .ci file to <ver> "</> and replaces the version number of" In_Setup_App.exe ".
After, the setup process is started.
Everything will be executed with Jenkins.
My Problem is to set the version Number of the Create Install Project Which consists of two or more containing application versions.

However, I want to abolish this workaround immediately.

Now it is possible to specify Output Filename as In_Setup_App_$ver$.exe.
You can send your .ci project and more details to info@createinstall.com.
