Hello,

Where are documented all the  DNN5 .DNN manifest options? I couldn't find them nowhere.

There is some information in this blog series:  http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/B...

However, it's not completed. I.e. it says, on 5/29/2008, "dependencies - this section describes dependencies that the package expects - I will go into more detain on this in a future blog"

I've reviewed the blog series and couldn't find (Feb 2010) the description of the 'dependencies' section anywhere.

 

Thanks.

you use the compatibleversions node that that - dependencies can also do it, as well as type and package http://bit.ly/dcn5ew

If using dependencies the CoreVersionDependency class uses a simple system.version minimum check, not a regexp as per compatibleversions e.g.
<dependency type="coreversion">05.01.00</dependency>

Finally, you can see an incomplete (but very welcome) dnn manitest xsd http://bit.ly/atDc0v

It is now august 2011, and as far as I can see, there is no documentation of how the manifest file should look.

I am specifically after how I can setup the manifest file so that I can include several modules from the same Visual Studio project.

Any updates on this?
