Hello everyone! Does anyone know how to add manifest to source that will require administrator privileges ? I was searching about it but I found only for Visual Studio.. I'm interested how to add it to source code of FASM..
For example, I have application that won't run without administrator privileges (Win7/Vista). I found some applications resource has something simmilar like this:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"><assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="x86" name="App1" type="win32"></assemblyIdentity><description>TestVista Program</description><dependency><dependentAssembly><assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.VC80.OpenMP" version="8.0.50727.762" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"></assemblyIdentity></dependentAssembly></dependency><trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3"><security><requestedPrivileges>
        <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false"></requestedExecutionLevel>
      </requestedPrivileges></security></trustInfo></assembly>

Resource name = Configuration Files
Resource ID = 1
And after executing application with this manifest, it says that I need to run it with administrator privileges..
Can anyone help me for that ? Thank you! Smile

1 more thing, I can't understand what alot from these means.. Can someone give me some tutorial how to understand these resource things ?
for example, the code:

Code:

section '.rsrc' resource data readable
directory 24,manifests
resource manifests,1,LANG_NEUTRAL,manifest
resdata manifest
file 'conf.xml'
endres

what does "directory 24,manifests" do ? and how I should know what to do there? Thanks.

Directory | http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms680305%28v=VS.85%29.aspx

24 | Resource type ( Manifest in this case). Some are I.e dialog, menu etc

manifests| Label identifying where the table of the resource is located at, in the resource directory.

I hope that answers it. Very Happy
