Get the versioninfo of a WP7 application

Quick cut/paste for the masses:

public static class Utilities
{
  /// <summary>
  /// Gets the version info of the executing assembly.
  /// </summary>
  /// <returns></returns>
  public static string GetVersionInfo()
  {
    string asmName = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().FullName;  //format = HelloWorld, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null

    string[] splits = asmName.Split(',');
    return splits[1]; //Version 1.0.0.0
  }
}

This will return to you this string: ‘Version 1.0.0.0’
