Script Format Version Question

[NewsArchive]

When I compile a script, the compiler output screen shows the the SetupBuilder
version (6.6.2016) and then the Script format version (6.0.1718). Why are they
different?

Hi Peter,

It tells the SetupBuilder compiler that the underlying "script format" is
version 6.0 (Gold).

SetupBuilder uses this version identifier to detect a script format change
so it can do necessary conversions. This version identifier only changes if
new "properties" were added to the system. For example, SetupBuilder 5.x
was not Vista-aware. This is an exclusive SetupBuilder 6.x feature. You
can open .sb5 in .sb6 and SetupBuilder will detect the "old" script format
and adds the new "Requested Execution Level" property.
