Intel® Fortran Compiler 16.0 User and Reference Guide
The Intel® Fortran Compiler supports manifests, a Visual Studio* feature. Manifests describe run-time dependencies of a built application. A manifest file can be embedded in the assembly, which is the default behavior, or can be a separate standalone file. You can use the Manifest Tool property pages, which are accessed through Project > Properties, to change project settings that affect the manifest.
In earlier releases, manifest files were embedded in the assembly, and were not able to be accessed or changed.
