AppManifest new Add-In for Delphi2009/2007

In Delphi2007 and Delphi2009 it's a little bit difficult if you want to change the embedded manifest in the Delphi projects, let us say for example if you want to change the Vista UAC options to set the "requestedExecutionLevel" to "requireAdministrator", even there are some workarounds, but these workarounds have "side effects" and need extra work from developers, while in other development environments like Visual Studio this task is quite easy, and you can add manifests to projects like any other items, Now this new Delphi Add-In AppManifest will make this task easy in Delphi as well,

and you will be able to add application manifest to projects like any other itmes.
another thing: this application manifest will be saved in external file <ApplicationName>.exe.manifest and that may give developers more options.
to see how to use this Add-In and to download it see AppManifest page.

Hi Issam

Will Appmanifest 2007 work on Delphi 2006?

They're supposed to be DCU compatible so it may just:)
If not, how difficult will it be to make one?

Kind regards
Dan

Hi Dan


Adding customisable manifest to projects in Delphi2006 is not so much difficult like in Delphi2007/2009 because there is no default embedded manifest in Delphi2006 projects, so I didn't make a release for Delphi2006, but if you see AppManifest can give a real help in Delphi2006, I can make this release, no problem ;) because Appmanifest 2007 will not work on Delphi 2006
