Problem:
- Product Name: VisiBroker/Borland AppServer
- Product Version: All
- Product Component: vbver tool
- Platform/OS Version: Windows
Limitation of "vbver.exe" utility in Windows
Resolution:
"vbver.exe" utility is used to get the information of each library and binary files of VisiBroker and AppServer.
This utility has an inherent limitation on Windows platforms -- it cannot process multiple files passed with a wildcard (? or *) at the command prompt. Example, running "vbver *" will raise the error:
vbver: * does not exist
A workaround will be creating a wrapping batch file as following:
@echo OFF
FOR /F %%G IN ('dir %1 /d /b') DO VBVER %1\\%%G
It will loop for each files that corresponds the parameter "%1" and pass the individual file to "vbver.exe".
