Version number in OutFile

Please! How append my exe-file version to installer output name dynamically? For example: mysoft-setup-2.5.200.exe. Using

!define $VERSION 2.5.200

OutFile mysoft-setup-${VERSION}.exe

is not appropriate method (static).

${GetFileVersion} ${EXE_FULLNAME} $R0

StrCpy $Version $R0

doesn't work too, because executes after OutFile.

!searchparse might also be able to help you out

And it should be
!define VERSION 2.5.200

not
!define $VERSION 2.5.200

.

Thanks to all!! You're right all. Link http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Invoking...n_compile-time is a great solution. How did I miss it?
!searchparse is useful, I think, if version number exists in source code (not my case).
And of course it should be

!define VERSION 2.5.200

It was typing error.
Thanks again!
