I want to read the bundle version info from Info.plist into my code, preferably as a string. How can I do this?

Answer 1

for Swift users:

if let version = NSBundle.mainBundle().objectForInfoDictionaryKey("CFBundleShortVersionString") {
    print("version is : \(version)")
}

for Swift3 users:

if let version = Bundle.main.object(forInfoDictionaryKey: "CFBundleShortVersionString") {
    print("version is : \(version)")
}
