Friedrich,

I just got done building a a very large install file. It would have been real sweet if I could say to code sign all EXE files instead of entering them one at a time. Maybe there is already something for this and I am just not savvy enough.

Abe,

Here is a nice little shortcut (for the meantime):

Add the one line of code to code sign what you need. Then copy/paste a few times
and all you need to do is change the name of the EXE/DLL. This was definitely
faster than inserting the #codesign code for each binary.

To extend that, once you are done with that, you can copy the entire block and
paste it into another project (like the web update script). Boom! You are done.

Russ,

Thanks for your suggestion. That's pretty much what I did, but it still
took a lot longer tan it should have.

And don't forget to embed a Win7 manifest before signing!

YES!

This order - UAC manifest - Armadillo protect (optional) - CodeSign EXE IS
important!

Added. You can specify a wildcard in the "File Name" field.

For example, c:\test\*.dll will code-sign all .dll files located in the
c:\test folder.

This will be available in the next maintenance build.
