Hi Guys,
I am applying the patch below to add a default manifest in to the
final links performed by the Cygwin and MinGW targets. The manifest
is necessary in order for the linked binaries to be executed in a
Windows 8 environment.
The manifest is added using a linker script so that this feature will
be compiler-neutral. The resource merging code in the linker means
that if an application provides its own manifest then the default
manifest will be ignored.
Cheers
Nick
