If you are amending manifests to DLL-files you will need to change the
#1to#2in on the following line:http://gist.github.com/bjornblissing/6fc452fe7ec1fdfe3419#file-cmakemanifest-txt-L9
So the new line would be:
COMMAND "mt.exe" -manifest \"${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}\\dpiawarescaleing.manifest\" -inputresource:\"$<TARGET_FILE:${TARGET_TARGETNAME}>\"\;\#2 -outputresource:\"$<TARGET_FILE:${TARGET_TARGETNAME}>\"\;\#2
