Overview

The FileInfo unit provides classes and utilities for extracting and manipulating version information from executable files and modules. It includes both low-level access through TVersionInfo and high-level component-based access through TFileVersionInfo.

The unit also provides convenience functions for version comparison (CompareVersionQuads, CompareProgramVersion, NewerVersion), string conversion (VersionQuadToStr, ProgramversionToStr, StrToVersionQuad, StrToProgramVersion), and version extraction (GetProgramVersion).
