Found this unit here
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,52259.msg385140.html#msg385140

And it works for Linux and Windows 10, great !!!

Any reason why it is not included in Lazarus or fpc sources ?

Or will that not be working for all platforms Lazarus is running on ?

For me it was very usefull to find this versionsupport.pas

ChatGPT , gemini ... told me application version info that is Windows only . But that is not true .

Perhaps i just don't know existing function names in Lazarus ?

... go to sleep now :-)

Interesting unit. I have noted some the ideas in it and may well use them. Thank you. These "tips and tricks" should be in the wiki. Whether the unit should be part of the LCL is less clear cut. Let's see what others think. -------- Original message --------From: John Landmesser via lazarus Date: 06/08/2025 22:50 (GMT+00:00) To: Cc: John Landmesser Subject: [Lazarus] i am confused about unit versionsupport.pas Found this unit here https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,52259.msg385140.html#msg385140And it works for Linux and Windows 10, great !!!Any reason why it is not included in Lazarus or fpc sources ?Or will that not be working for all platforms Lazarus is running on ?For me it was very usefull to find this versionsupport.pasChatGPT , gemini ... told me application version info that is Windows only .
