How to embed .lic file using Visual Studio 2005

rheath · January 25, 2007, 9:14am

I recenly have been migrating a Visual Studio 2003 project to Visual Studio 2005. In Visual Studio 2003 you could use the embedded resource for the license file like in your wiki link -

Licensing

Is there a way to do this in Visual Studio 2005?

Thanks,

Russ

Hi Russ,

Yes. The wiki link works for both visual studio 2003 and visual studio 2005.

Tried to follow the instructions in the wiki for embedding the license file in Visual Studio 2005.

After using add existing item for the license file there is no options for setting build action. The only properties present are file name and full path

There is no problem in my Visual Studio 2005. Please try to see if there are options for setting build action for other files.
