- We were wondering how other companies version
- and time stamp executable programs.
-
- Our project requires a version and time
- stamp embeded into a "built product" and
- through our version control (Sablime) there
- is no built-in mechanism on getting such a
- time stamp inserted into a built system.
- We currently code with %W% so that use of
- the "what" command will give us all the
- source files that went into an executable.
- But we are not sure how to place a final
- stamp on the product?
-
- How are others handling this issue?
-
- Thanks
