How to get ArcGIS Pro version via C# API

GustavoCruz

Hi,

We develop an add-in for ArcGIS Pro in .Net / C# which has a custom About screen where among other we display the ArcGIS Pro version.

We followed this snippet (https://github.com/esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki/ProSnippets-Framework#get-arcgis-pro-version) in order to get it but even though I'm running ArcGIS Pro 2.3.3 the version I get with code below is 2.3.0.0.

Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString(); 

Could this be a bug in the API or are we doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Gustavo

Hi,

To get the full file version of ArcGISPro.exe, you can try something like this:

System<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Reflection<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Assembly assembly <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> System<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Reflection<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Assembly<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN><SPAN class="token function">GetEntryAssembly</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN>
FileVersionInfo fvi <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> FileVersionInfo<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN><SPAN class="token function">GetVersionInfo</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>assembly<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Location<SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN>
