There are three assembly version attributes. What are differences? Is it ok if I use AssemblyVersion and ignore the rest?


MSDN says:

  • AssemblyVersion:

    Specifies the version of the assembly being attributed.

  • AssemblyFileVersion:

    Instructs a compiler to use a specific version number for the Win32 file version resource. The Win32 file version is not required to be the same as the assembly's version number.

  • AssemblyInformationalVersion:

    Defines additional version information for an assembly manifest.


This is a follow-up to What are the best practices for using Assembly Attributes?
