Correct manifest information

It would be cool if PBCompiler would put the information that is entered in the compiler options into the Manifest file.

The following should be replaced:
  • version="1.0.0.0"
  • name="CompanyName.ProductName.YourApp"
  • <description>Your application description here.</description>

Code: Select all

<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
  <assemblyIdentity
    version="1.0.0.0"
    processorArchitecture="X86"
    name="CompanyName.ProductName.YourApp"
    type="win32" />
  <description>Your application description here.</description>
  <dependency>
    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity
        type="win32"
        name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"
        version="6.0.0.0"
        processorArchitecture="X86"
        publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df"
        language="*" />
    </dependentAssembly>
  </dependency>
	<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2">
    <security>
      <requestedPrivileges>
        <requestedExecutionLevel
          level="asInvoker"
          uiAccess="false"/>
        </requestedPrivileges>
       </security>
  </trustInfo>
</assembly>

is it good to fill these fields (version, name, description) manually or does the pbcompiler ignore it for a reason? Could I do something wrong?

{{bump}}

it's getting old manually hacking the manifest. would almost prefer that no manifest was automatically added..

Really should have this built in for the windows compiler, adjust version, elevation level, version etc.

Disabling XP skins in the Compiler Options will not add it.

well, I never used xp skins, so 'disabling' it isn't an issue... Why doesn't the compiler grab the relevant information from the version/resources?
