Versioning

---

These parameters allow you to set options related to version numbers and built file information. These parameters must be surrounded with <Versioning> and </Versioning> keys.

These parameters are broken down into four subsets:

• Common: common files,
• RuntimeVL: 4D Volume Desktop files,
• Server: 4D Server files,
• Client: 4D Volume Desktop client files.

Certain keys in the Common subset set the same information as the other subsets - only the application field is different. In the event that two similar keys are used, the "specific" key (RuntimeVL, Server, or Client subset) has priority over the "generic" key (Common subset).

Common

The keys of this subset are common to all 4D applications (4D Volume Desktop and 4D Server).

They must be surrounded with <Common> and </Common> keys.
