Suggestion to SB6

[NewsArchive]

In the '#Embed Vista Manifest', make the fields 'Program name:' and perhaps
too 'Program description' required.
If they are blank, the manifested program cannot run.

Spent 7 hours to find out....

We checked this with Microsoft 18 month ago. Microsoft told us that the
name and description in the Vista manifest is optional. It should be used,
but it is not strictly needed.

The new SB6 build is already uploaded, so we'll add a note to the
documentation in the next build.

FYI: The compiler can detect this now and reports a warning.

good!

As I have found it, the programs discontinues working in both XP and Vista,
if you do not add a 'Name'

Hi Edvard,

The new build requires both Name and Description now (not optional any
longer). If you use compiler variables here and the values are "empty" then
the compiler gives a warning.

Thanks,
Friedrich
