Version Info missing in my DLL file

I have created a VC project (which will create a DLL). It is using managed
extension.
It also has a ConfigData.cpp. In that file I have the following:
[assembly:AssemblyVersionAttribute("1.0.1.*")];

However, it does not write any version info in the DLL itself. Do I have to
play with ressource files. If yes, I do not understand the usage of
ConfigData.cpp


Thanks,
José
 
Thanks,

However, I do not really see the point of having a file version which does
not match the assembly version.
What is the purpose of that?

First of all, the assembly version is different than the file version
(AssemblyVersion vs. AssemblyFileVersion). And even then, for managed C++
projects, the file version specified in the assembly attributes does not
result in the VERSIONINFO resource FileVersion field being updated, if
that's what you meant by version info.
