Extension Information Expander

The Extension Information expander lists all the extensions that are configured in a project. This expander is not available on the Client/FEP.

It also displays the version of each installed extension in the Data Version column. The value shown here is taken from the VersionInfo.txt file located at
[installation drive:]\[installation folder]\GMSMainProject\_Upgrades\_Extensions\[EMName]\[Latest Version folder]\
If this version information is not available with the extension, the default version 1.0.0.0 is used. The version of the each installed extension is compared with the extension version configured in the project config file located at
[installation drive:]\[installation folder]\[project]\config.

If the project extension version is older (Outdated) than the installed extension version, you must upgrade the project. The Status column shows the outcome of this comparison as follows.
