XP Style Manifest in a Class Library

R

Robby White

I know how to use the manifest to acheive XP style
controls in an executable file, but how can this be
aceived in a class library? I have a component designer
that I want to apply the manifest to, but it is built
into my DLL. Help!

Hi Robby,

Based on my understanding, you already know the way to apply xp style as
the article below shows:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dv_vstechar
t/html/vbtchUsingWindowsXPVisualStylesWithControlsOnWindowsForms.asp

But I do not know what your "aceived in a class library" means. In the
article I pasted, you can find that the XP style relies on the use of
Version 6.0 comman control dll which was taken with Windows XP. So you can
only apply this to an entire project to use this XP style dll.

The article below teaches you to integrate all the XP style works in the
VS.net IDE(as an add-in):

If you find this is not enough, please feel free to explain your concern
more clearly to me.
