Overriding ProductVersion with MSBuild
Hi guys,
I'm stucked and I'm sure that the problem is somewhere between the chair and the keyboard.
I'm executing MSBuild in the following way:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319>msbuild "D:\XPTO\Solution.sln" /p:Configuration="Release" /p:Platform="Mixed Platforms" /p:ProductVersion="5.0.0.0"
This executes correctly but when I install the setup the version is not 5.0.0.0.
What am I doing wrong?
EDIT: I replaced "ProductVersion" by InstallShieldProductVersion and it works... Is this the correct way?

The InstallShield task for MSBuild includes a ProductVersion parameter, which you can use to specify the product version through MSBuild. This parameter is exposed as the property InstallShieldProductVersion when the default targets file is used.
