Unable to change CopyRight and Original File Name.

[ShivaniPahuja02]

Hi,

We are unable to edit the resources like copyright and Original file Name information .

In associated vc project i can see the concerned macro #define RU_VS_ORIGINAL_FILENAME L"OriginalFilename".

Do you have plan to update the rcedit to support other properties as well.

Regards,

The name of this issue is not correct, this works fine but just not directly. You must know the names and their possible values and use the option --set-version-string <key> <value> Set version string.

Therefore this issue's title is misleading.

rcedit-x64.exe TEST.dll --set-version-string legalcopyright "(C) forever" --set-version-string  OriginalFilename "notest.dll" --set-version-string FileDescription "this is a nice dll"

See VERSIONINFO resource for information about the standard key values.

But it would be nice to have direct command line options to set these or list the standard options mentioned in the reference under --help.

It also seems to be case sensitive. This means it is 'LegalCopyright' and not 'legalcopyright'. A option to list the key values would be nice. Or a warning when changing a key that doesn't exist?
