| Term
| Assembly manifest
|
| Definition
| Detailed description of the assembly contents. A manifest contains metadata describing the name, resources, types, and version of the assembly as well as dependencies upon other assemblies. The manifest makes an assembly self-describing, easier to deploy, and not bound to a particular system because of storing data in the Windows registry.
