How do you get the application manifest data programatically

(This is a repost since the original was in the wrong forum, sorry).

This is for a WPF application (can be either stand-alone or XBAP)

I wish to read some of the properties of the application manifest during runtime using the:



Microsoft.Build.Tasks.Deployment.ManifestUtilities .ApplicationManifest class.



Specifically I wish to determine if "HostInBrowser" is true or false. This can be a variable in our deployment solution. (It can be deployed as an XBAP or stand-alone WPF)


Is this possible? How can I "grab" the manifest data from the application itself to read it? Its either so painfully obvious I'm missing something or it cannot be done without jumping through hoops.

Thank you
