Steve Dower added the comment: /MANIFEST is probably assumed on VC9 since the CRT required it, but that was probably changed for VC10 without updating the documentation fully. Frankly I'd rather remove the MANIFESTFILE property added by distutils, since it doesn't add anything of value (on my test machine, it only requests an execution level of asInvoker, which is the default).
That way people can include useful manifests with their source if necessary and provide both the /MANIFEST and /MANIFESTFILE flags themselves, and we reduce the amount of code in the stdlib. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4431> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
