I am creating patch for my application to deploy small changes to customer. In my application I have 100 .CSProject. Out of 100 library I made code changes in class library A, B, C and Library D is calling to A,B and C library. So Is there any way when I build my application then It should change the version of only A,B,C and D library which have changes. Manually I can change but I need any automatic way.

What I have tried:

I have tried automatic assembly version linker using ms-build but that will update all the dll. but i want to update version only changed library.

Maybe you can use this VS add-in: Versioning Controlled Build[^]

You can read the CodeProject article where it mentions "Increment modified projects" under Batch Commands: Versioning Controlled Build[^]

This won't work with my build. I am working on MSbuild. My problem is I can't use external tools.

So you can't even run the command line version of the tool ?

Yea I can use. But let me clear my question again. In Application I have 3 Solution name as (SolA, SolB, SolC) & I have common lib name as Common.lib. in SolA an Application Name as AWindowsService and in SolB an application name as BWinForm both are using this Commob.lib assembly.Now I made change in Common.lib then It should change the version only of Common.lib, AWindowService and BWinForm proejct and for other lib and project it should set the version which I am setting from Msbuild.
