Modifying the app version number

By default, the version number of the app is set to 1.0 and the build number is also set to 1.0. You can change these numbers. We recommend you increment the app version number with each release of your app.

Incrementing the app version number with each new release can provide control over configuration. For example, if you provide a custom server connection in MyConfiguration.plist, the specified connection replaces any server connections from previous app versions. To make sure your custom server connection is updated correctly, you must update the app version number for each new version. For more information on custom server configuration, see Configurations for a custom login page for single sign on.

Perform this task in the copy of the DeploymentKitApp in Xcode on your computer.

Procedure

In the Project and Targets view, select the target DeploymentKitApp.
Click the General tab.
Under Identity, provide the Version number and Build number.

Result

The app version number, followed by the build number in parentheses, is displayed as the first entry in Settings for the app, as well as in the Settings sidebar menu item view in the app.
