Hi all,

Is it possible to configure a Web Part from the file manifest.xml to define certain characteristics such as selfdelpoiment and the solution level(site,collection, ..) ?

Hi Ahmed,

manifest.xml is for a solution, So if you want to define a web part deploy scope , you can define in featue.xml like the following.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<Feature  Id="71dbb87c-7d33-41a3-90a4-3e11126385ea"

          Title="EventHandlerTest2012"

          Description="Description for EventHandlerTest2012"

          Version="12.0.0.0"

          Hidden="FALSE"

          Scope="Web"

          DefaultResourceFile="core"

         

          xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">

  <ElementManifests>

    <ElementManifest Location="elements.xml"/>

  </ElementManifests>

</Feature>

Thanks,

Jack
