Properties

1. Purpose

This file provides assembly-level metadata attributes for the DTS.Viewer.ViewerSettings module. It defines identity information (title, product), versioning details, and COM visibility settings for the compiled .NET assembly. It serves as the standard assembly manifest configuration, typically auto-generated by Visual Studio for .NET Framework projects, to identify the module within the larger "DTS Viewer" application ecosystem.

2. Public Interface

This file does not contain public classes or methods. Instead, it configures the following assembly-level attributes:

• AssemblyTitle: Set to "DTS.Viewer.ViewerSettings". Provides a friendly name for the assembly.
• AssemblyDescription: Set to an empty string.
• AssemblyProduct: Set to "DTS.Viewer.ViewerSettings". Provides product information.
• AssemblyCopyright: Set to "Copyright © 2019".
• ComVisible: Set to false. Ensures types within this assembly are not visible to COM components by default.
• Guid: Set to "4733690a-cb08-4c2e-853a-9339be13ac28". A unique identifier for the assembly, used if the project is exposed to COM.
• AssemblyVersion: Set to "1.0.0.0". Defines the version of the assembly used by the common language runtime.
• AssemblyFileVersion: Set to "1.0.0.0". Defines the file version number displayed on the file properties.

3. Invariants

• COM Visibility: Types within this assembly are explicitly hidden from COM components (ComVisible(false)).
• Versioning: Both the assembly version and file version are fixed at 1.0.0.0.
• Identity: The Guid is constant and uniquely identifies this specific assembly module.

4. Dependencies

• Imports:
  • System.Reflection
  • System.Runtime.CompilerServices
  • System.Runtime.InteropServices
• Dependents: The compiled assembly (DTS.Viewer.ViewerSettings.dll) is the direct consumer of this metadata. Other modules within the "DTS Viewer" solution may reference this assembly, but they do not depend on this specific source file directly.

5. Gotchas

• Hardcoded Versions: The AssemblyVersion and AssemblyFileVersion are hardcoded to 1.0.0.0. Unlike modern SDK-style projects which may derive versioning from build pipelines, this file requires manual updates or a build task to modify version numbers for new releases.
• Empty Description: The AssemblyDescription attribute is explicitly empty, which may result in missing metadata in assembly browsers or deployment tools.
• Stale Copyright: The copyright string is hardcoded to 2019. If the codebase is active, this date is likely outdated.
