    copied!<p>While I'm pretty sure that Christopher's answer and code sample (thank you, Christopher!) is part of a more elegant solution, we were under the gun to get this out the door and found a very similar, but different, solution.</p> <p>The first step is to create a manifest for the assembly:</p> <pre><code>&lt;assembly xmlns='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1' manifestVersion='1.0'&gt; &lt;dependency&gt; &lt;dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;assemblyIdentity type='win32' name='Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT' version='8.0.50608.0' processorArchitecture='x86' publicKeyToken='1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b' /&gt; &lt;/dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;/dependency&gt; &lt;dependency&gt; &lt;dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;assemblyIdentity type='win32' name='Microsoft.VC80.CRT' version='8.0.50608.0' processorArchitecture='x86' publicKeyToken='1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b' /&gt; &lt;/dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;/dependency&gt; &lt;/assembly&gt; </code></pre> <p>Next you have to set the 'Generate Manifest' option to 'No' under Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Manifest File, and set the 'Embed Manifest' option to 'No' under Configuration Properties -> Manifest Tool -> Input and Output.</p> <p>Finally, to get your new manifest into the assembly add the following command to the project's post-build step:</p> <pre><code>mt.exe /manifest "$(ProjectDir)cppassembly.dll.manifest" /outputresource:"$(TargetDir)\cppassembly.dll";#2 -out:"$(TargetDir)\cppassembly.dll.manifest" </code></pre> <p>Once built we can open the dll in Visual Studio to view the manifest under RT_MANIFEST and confirm that it has our manifest!</p> <p>When I put Christopher's code in the stdafx.h it ended up adding it as an <em>additional</em> dependency...the manifest was still looking for v8.0.50727.762. The manifest it generated looked like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"&gt; &lt;dependency&gt; &lt;dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT" version="8.0.50608.0" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"&gt;&lt;/assemblyIdentity&gt; &lt;/dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;/dependency&gt; &lt;dependency&gt; &lt;dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT" version="8.0.50727.762" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"&gt;&lt;/assemblyIdentity&gt; &lt;/dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;/dependency&gt; &lt;dependency&gt; &lt;dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.VC80.CRT" version="8.0.50727.762" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"&gt;&lt;/assemblyIdentity&gt; &lt;/dependentAssembly&gt; &lt;/dependency&gt; &lt;/assembly&gt; </code></pre> <p>I could not track down another switch that would remove or clear existing dependencies. I like Christopher's approach better than a post-build step, but for now this works. If anyone has any additional input on how to clear out any existing dependencies that'd be great.</p> <p>Thanks!</p>
