Details

Example with Firefox:
{{
Creating Resource file: module.res

rc.exe  -DMOZ_PHOENIX [...] .../browser/app/module.rc

link -NOLOGO -OUT:firefox.exe [...] msimg32.lib

.../mozilla/browser/app/firefox.exe.manifest:manifest authoring warning 81010002:Unrecognized Element "trustInfo" in namespace "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3".
}}

I assume it applies to the other 4 applications too.
Product: Firefox → Core
QA Contact: general → general
Cause seems to be a version mismatch:

<http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/app/firefox.exe.manifest>
{{
 2 <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">

22 <ms_asmv3:trustInfo xmlns:ms_asmv3="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
}}

<http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6ad1fshk.aspx>
{{
Elements and Attributes

The trustInfo element is required and is in the asm.v2 namespace.
}}

NB: In case it matters, I'm using VC++ v8/2005 SP1 and PSDK 2003 R2.

I don't know of any value either way regarding using v2 vs v3... I have seen v3
showing up more lately but nothing in the way of reasons to use one vs. the
other. I did notice that the manifest parsing restart bug references using v3.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/921337

either way is fine with me on the version and thanks

Well, that says VS2005 (mt.exe) does not recognize "v3",
but it doesn't say "v2" is not to be used (anymore), does it ?

***

Let's see a few (random) links:

As I have yet to read/learn anything defining what "v3" actually is (compared to "v2"),
besides "v3 (is better) for Vista" ... but is it really mandatory ?

Apparently, a malformed v3 manifest file will cause Windows XP SP2 to crash.

Also, apparently v2 manifests are significantly more stable and yet still work.

Fwiw,

It also turns out that the warning is "harmless" in that the HTML does get
embedded into the manifest and recognized by Vista even with the warning.

Did you install the SDK tools? I believe it contains the updated mt.exe... not sure we will use it but I thought we did if it is present.

Either way, what are you asking to be done since this warning is "harmless" as you note?
Don't care, it's just a warning.
