At least with Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express edition, manifest files
need to be embeded into DLLs. wxWidgets 2.8.10 does not do that, so
Alien::wxWidgets needs to make it do that.
This can be done using
cd lib\vc_dll
for %q in (*.manifest) do (
mt -nologo -manifest %q -outputresource:%~nq;2
del %q
)
although adding the following where appropriate in the makefile.vc files
would be better:
if exists SOMETHING.manifest mt -nologo -manifest
SOMETHING.manifest -outputresource:SOMETHING;2
if exists SOMETHING.manifest del SOMETHING.manifest
