One little nice new feature since the December update of Delphi 2007 is
that the about-box shows a list of installed updates. You no longer
need to do complicated inquiries in the bin-directry to find out which
updates are installed, and whch not.

Today I installed the brand-new "April 2008 hotfix". Now I look at the
about-box again, but this update is not mentioned here.
Does this mean that the installation has gone wrong?

Hi Tiedo,

No, it probably went fine. There is no mention of it in the About box,
that's true, but you can still find 'evicence'...

If you click the Version Info... button in the About Box, you will see
that bcbide100.bpl, dcc110il.dll, delphicoreide100.bpl, htlphelp2100.bpl
and xmlrtl100.bpl now have a version number of 11.0.2987.10799 and
dcc100.dll has a version number of 11.0.2963.11001 (all with date/time
stamp of March 27th, just like dcc32.exe).

Thank you.
Strange. CG comes with a useful feature, and a few months later decide
not to us it anymore.
