Initializes a new instance of the Version class with the specified major, minor, build, and revision numbers.

Overloads

Version()	Initializes a new instance of the Version class.
Version(String)	Initializes a new instance of the Version class using the specified string.
Version(Int32, Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the Version class using the specified major and minor values.
Version(Int32, Int32, Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the Version class using the specified major, minor, and build values.

Version()

Source:: Version.cs

Source:: Version.cs

Source:: Version.cs

Initializes a new instance of the Version class.

public:
 Version();

public Version();

Public Sub New ()

Remarks

This constructor creates a Version object with the following property values.

Property	Value
Major	0
Minor	0
Build	undefined (-1)
Revision	undefined (-1)

Applies to

.NET 10 and other versions

Product	Versions
.NET	Core 2.0, Core 2.1, Core 2.2, Core 3.0, Core 3.1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
.NET Framework	1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 4.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1, 4.7.2, 4.8, 4.8.1
.NET Standard	2.0, 2.1

Version(String)

Source:: Version.cs

Source:: Version.cs

Source:: Version.cs

Initializes a new instance of the Version class using the specified string.

public:
 Version(System::String ^ version);

public Version(string version);

new Version : string -> Version

Public Sub New (version As String)

Parameters

version: String

A string containing the major, minor, build, and revision numbers, where each number is delimited with a period character ('.').

Exceptions

ArgumentException

version has fewer than two components or more than four components.

ArgumentNullException

version is null.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

A major, minor, build, or revision component is less than zero.

FormatException

At least one component of version does not parse to an integer.

OverflowException

At least one component of version represents a number greater than Int32.MaxValue.

Remarks

The version parameter can contain only the components major, minor, build, and revision, in that order, and all separated by periods. There must be at least two components, and at most four. The first two components are assumed to be major and minor. The value of unspecified components is undefined.

The format of the version number is as follows. Optional components are shown in square brackets ('[' and ']'):

major.minor[.build[.revision]]

All defined components must be integers greater than or equal to 0. For example, if the major number is 6, the minor number is 2, the build number is 1, and the revision number is 3, then version should be "6.2.1.3".
