Vista manifest / Armadillo

[NewsArchive]

There must be an easier way of doing this.

I find that if I wrap a program with Armadillo, then use SB6 to add a
manifest, the program crashes at runtime with an Armadillo Unpack Exception
message.

The sequence I seem to need to follow is:

1. Compile Clarion app
2. Create dummy SB6 installer. The purpose of this installer is just to
embed a manifest into my app.
3. Compile dummy installer Then run dummy installer to install app to a
temporary directory.
4. Use Armadillo to wrap the app that now has the manifest within it.
5. Sign the app
6. Create 'real' SB6 installer to install manifested/wrapped/signed app and
support files.

Friedrich, is there some way to script this? To run a batch file after the
manifest has been embedded so I can have that call Armadillo? Or if I pause
the setup script, is there a temp directory where I'd find my app after the
manifest has been inserted?
