File versions created byInstallAware

Hello,

I am using InstallAware X3 and observed the following behaviour:
In a new setup projects Property page I entered "1.5" as Product Version.

When evaluating the file version from our .NET application the file version reads as the entered value plus 298 empty spaces
Is this an intended behaviour? If so, why?

Regards

Dear Anja,

honestly I have no idea of why this happens.

I can only say that using the "GetFileVersionInfo" WINAPI I don't have such problem.
At any rate, the "GetFileVersionInfo" WINAPI returns DWORD values (MajorVersion, MinorVersion and so on) as version data and not STRING types.

Hope this helps you.
