Windows Manifest Files and Delphi

Posted by jpluimers on 2019/03/28

An interesting read on Windows Manifest Files in Delphi [WayBack].

TL;DR:

Do not let Delphi manage your manifest. All versions are either limited, or buggy, or both.

Basically it’s the same as doing VersionInfo in Delphi: do not let the IDE do it, but do it yourself. In this case:

Write your own manifest in XML, then load it as a resource.
