How do I construct a Resources .rc (or otherwise) file to add to a Visual COBOL project to populate the Details tab on a .EXE/.DLL Properties?
I would like to be able specify Copyright, Product name, Product version, and File description.
I have created a .rc file that contains:
1 VERSIONINFO
FILEVERSION 1,2,3,4
PRODUCTVERSION 5,6,7,8
FILEFLAGS 0
BEGIN
BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
BEGIN
BLOCK "04090000" /* lang-charset : US. English, ACSII */
BEGIN
VALUE "CompanyName", "Company Name\\0"
VALUE "FileVersion", "9.10.11.12\\0"
VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Copyright (C) 2025\\0"
VALUE "ProductName", "Product name\\0"
VALUE "ProductVersion", "13.14.15.16\\0"
END
END
END
But the only property that gets used is the initial FILEVERSION (1,2,3,4).
How do I get the other values into the EXE/DLL Properties?
