WPF C# Desktop App - Build date from the application

Question

Hello,

   private void MainWindow_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            CurrentViewModel = (ViewModel)(this.Resources["vm"]);
            CurrentViewModel.InitFromMainWindow();

            this.Title = "Setting App/ (09/2020), " + Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString();

How can I display the date of the exe on the title bar?

Answer 1

Hi Markus,
bind property in Title and get the information like this:

        Title="{Binding Title}" Height="450" Width="800">
  <Window.DataContext>
    <local:ViewModel/>
  </Window.DataContext>

...

  public class ViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
  {
    public string Title { get => "Setting App/ (09/2020), " + File.GetCreationTime(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location).ToString(); }

Answer 3

I need the change date?
But the Creation date, is which date? Can you get me an answer? Thanks.
The project is older than 15.09.2020

I think this is ok.
