Questions about manifest

[xinjie]

Hi, everybody

I'm having trouble with the manifest file.

Here's the thing:
I am using the WIN32API SetLocalTime function in my test code. I have to start the executable in administrator mode if I need to get the expected results.

Following my experience in VFP, I create an external manifest file. But it doesn't seem to work. The contents of the manifest are as follows(It's the AI that gives):

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
  <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2">
    <security>
      <requestedPrivileges>
        <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" />
      </requestedPrivileges>
    </security>
  </trustInfo>
  <compatibility xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:compatibility.v1">
    <application>
      <!-- A list of the Windows versions that this application is designed to work with. -->
      <supportedOS Id="{8e0f7a12-bfb3-4fe8-b9a5-48fd50a15a9a}" /> <!-- Windows 10 -->
      <supportedOS Id="{35138b9a-5d96-4fbd-8e2d-a2440225f93a}" /> <!-- Windows 8.1 -->
      <supportedOS Id="{4f476d8e-5e6e-4d8a-8e8e-8d7b2e3c5b1e}" /> <!-- Windows 8 -->
      <supportedOS Id="{1e1f7a12-bfb3-4fe8-b9a5-48fd50a15a9a}" /> <!-- Windows 7 -->
      <supportedOS Id="{d8e0f7a12-bfb3-4fe8-b9a5-48fd50a15a9a}" /> <!-- Windows 11 -->
    </application>
  </compatibility>
</assembly>

Well, I checked “Suppress default Win32 manifest” in the project properties and Re-build the project。
But when I start the EXE, I see the message: could not start the application the parallel configuration is not correct

By this point, I hadn't given up. I tried to use the internal application manifest to solve the problem, but found no clue in the help documentation.

I then created a console project in C#. Following a web search, I added the manifest file to the project (actually, in the project reference, I added app.manifest)

By this point, I was confused. I'm not sure if simply adding it to the X# project reference is the right thing to do. Also, I noticed in the C# project reference that there is also an App.config file. I'm not sure if X# needs this file.

Okay, I'm confused. Is anyone willing to show me clear steps in order for me to complete this test?
