HRESULT GetVersion(
  [out, retval] UINT64 *packageVersion
);

Parameters

[out, retval] packageVersion

Remarks

The version is specified using the Version attribute of the Identity element in the package manifest. The specification in the manifest is in quad notation:

major.minor.build.revision

• The high-order word contains the major version
• The next word contains the minor version
• The next word contains the build number
• The low-order word contains the revision
