\u00a0Nothing quite impressive, I used the file version collection and asked some of the properties from the SPFileVersion. Here\u2019s the result:<\/p>\n
Notice that version 5.0 is the currently published\u00a0version and a draft version 5.1 is available too. Hey, there is another version: 5.2! Why does this file not show up by code?\u00a0<\/p>\n There is another approach to get all the versions, let\u2019s use the versions of the list items instead of the files:\u00a0<\/p>\n And the result: Notice that all the existing versions, including the current version, are displayed. Also the sorting is the other way around compared to the listing based on the file versions.\u00a0<\/p>\n The conclusion here is that the SPFileVersionCollection only shows the versions, without the current version<\/span> and the SPListItemVersionCollection shows all the versions, including the current version<\/span>.\u00a0<\/p>\n Suppose you want to delete or put all the previous versions of a file to the recycle bin, you can easily use the SPFileVersionCollection option demonstrated above. This way you don\u2019t have to exclude the current version from your deleting code as you would with the SPListItemVersionCollection option.\u00a0<\/p>\n Here\u2019s an example of this:<\/p>\n The result of questioning the SPFileVersionCollection after this action: The result of questioning the SPListItemVersionCollection after this action: Notice that the current version of the file still exists after the recycle action. With the SPFileVersionCollection there is one version besides the actual current version, which is not listed here. This is because the actual current version is still a draft version. A nice part of document libraries and lists is the version history. Nothing new, we had it in MOSS 2007, but I previously never dived really into the version history by code.
