Does this make sense to anyone?
Not to me. The microsoft help says that you need to add the /MANIFEST
option to the linker in order to generate the manifest file.
link /nologo /MANIFEST /OUT:msvc\qt4\lyx.exe //LIBPATH:msvc\libs
/LIBPATH:D:\program\Qt\4.1\lib /LIBPATH:D:\program\Qt\4.1\lib
/LIBPATH:D:\program\GnuWin32\lib /LIBPATH:D:\program\Aspell-0.60.4\lib
lyxbase_pre.lib mathed.lib insets.lib frontends.lib qt4.lib
controllers.lib graphics.lib supports.lib lyxbase_post.lib
included_boost_signals.lib included_boost_regex.lib
included_boost_filesystem.lib included_boost_iostreams.lib QtCore4.lib
QtGui4.lib shlwapi.lib gdi32.lib shell32.lib advapi32.lib zlib.lib
"msvc\common\main.obj"
Then (following MS documentation) the manifest tool should be used to
link that to the executable:
mt.exe –manifest lyx.exe.manifest -outputresource:lyx.exe;1
Microsoft (R) Manifest Tool version 5.2.3790.2014

mt.exe : command line error c1010007: Unexpected/Unknown option
"‼manifest". Use the /? option for help on usage and samples.
That's a very nice help from Microsoft...
