What is your build system?

Sorry, I meant, is that ANT, Maven or something else?

[srik_008]

i am using ANT in my build machine.i have tried as mentioned in IA manual.but i could not able to provide version number

[pv7721]

The simplest way would be to copy the setup.exe and rename it to your liking.

hi rename is working fine but its working as cut-rename and paste.is it possible to provide the version number for installer title.

Sorry, but I'm not sure I understand what you mean by copy and paste in this context.

[srik_008]

i mean the file missing from source path and available with renamed file in destination path

[pv7721]

Sorry, I still don't get it. Which file is that? A file that goes into the setup?

[srik_008]

created installer in source location renamed installer destination location.

example:

installername.exe file is available in C:\ folder i have used rename task using ant script destination location is D:\ folder i can able to rename file like installer-versionno.exe but the instalername.exe file is missing in C:\ folder
