Hi
i've some problems with choosing my application version , here is my code :
B4X:
#ApplicationLabel: Something
#VersionCode: 1.5
#VersionName: blahblah
'SupportedOrientations possible values: unspecified, landscape or portrait.
#SupportedOrientations: fullSensor
#CanInstallToExternalStorage: True
it seems taht the version number is defiened as integer so can't accept any float or single value , is there any other ways ?! like changing manifest file ?!
Thanks
Basically, VersionCode is Google's way of keeping track of new releases, however minor or major the changes and VersionName is for you to keep track using whatever method you choose. Thus, VersionCode 1 might be VersionName 1.0 for you, VersionCode 2 might be VersionName 1.1 for you, indicating a minor fix, and VersionCode 3 might be VersionName 2.0 for you, indicating a major updated release.

Just a last comment on this; as number it does not need to be sequential!
You can have:
Version (String) = "5.00.01"
Version (Number) = 50001
which helps keep things in sync.
