Use this page to configure where on your network you want the ClickOnce manifests to be built to.

Manifest Files

Generate manifest names automatically

Select this option to simply specify an output directory and let ClickOnceMore create the .application and .manifest file names and folders.

ClickOnceMore will create a new directory per version. That directory will contain the application manifest (.manifest) and all the application files for that version of the software.

ClickOnceMore will also create one deployment manifest (.application) per version. The deployment manifest references the application manifest.

Finally, ClickOnceMore will maintain a single file - the name of which will be generated using the Deployment URL from the General page. That file will be overwritten for each build, and will contain the deployment manifest (.application) for that build. Please note, this is a duplicate of the deployment manifest generated with the version number in it.

Output Directory

This field supports macro replacement. See Macros for more details.

When generating manifest names automatically enter the directory where ClickOnceMore should generate the ClickOnce manifests.

ClickOnceMore does not support FTP directories as output. This can be overcome by using a free utility called Netdrive (http://netdrive.net/) which allows you to map FTP locations to a drive letter.

Specify manifest files exactly

Select this option to override ClickOnceMore and specify the names of the manifest files yourself.

If you select this option and do not use the version number in the file names, you will need to enable overwriting in the Preferences dialog (accessed through the File menu).

Deployment Manifest File (.application)

This field supports macro replacement. See Macros for more details.

The full path and filename to write the deployment manifest (.application) to.

Application Manifest File (.manifest)

This field supports macro replacement. See Macros for more details.

The full path and filename to write the application manifest (.manifest) to. All of your applications files will also be written to the directory you specify for the application manifest file.

Path from Deployment Manifest to Application Manifest

This field supports macro replacement. See Macros for more details.

The deployment manifest must reference the application manifest. In order to do this, ClickOnceMore will attempt to construct a relative path from one to the other. In the event that this isn't possible please enter the correct relative path here.
