<version>

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

Increments a version number counter from a text file. The resulting version string is written back to the file and entered in a NAnt property defined by prefix + "version".

buildtype determines how the build number is generated:

monthday - use the # months since start of project * 100 + current day in month as build number
increment - increment a build number stored in the build.number file in current directory
noincrement - do not increment the build number - we use this if we need to update an existing build

revisiontype determines how the revision number is generated:

automatic - use the # seconds since the start of today / 10
increment - use the file version's revision number spec'd by the revisionbin attribute

Parameters

Attribute	Type	Description	Required
buildtype	string	Algorithm for generating build number. Valid values are "monthday", "increment" and "noincrement". The default is "monthday".	False
path	string	Path to the file containing the current version number. The default file is `'build.number'` in the project base directory.	False
prefix	string	The string to prefix the property name with. The default is `'sys.'`.	False
revisiontype	string	Algorithm for generating revision number. Valid values are "automatic" and "increment".	False
startDate	string	Start of project. Date from which to calculate build number. Required if "monthday" is used as `buildtype`.	False
failonerror	bool	Determines if task failure stops the build, or is just reported. The default is true.	False
if	bool	If true then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is true.	False
unless	bool	Opposite of `if`. If false then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false.	False
verbose	bool	Determines whether the task should report detailed build log messages. The default is false.	False
