Developing ASP.NET MVC Web Applications — Question 91

You are preparing for the deployment of an ASP.NET MVC application. You need to generate a deployment manifest.
Which command-line tool should you use?

Answer options

• A. Mage.exe
• B. Ngen.exe
• C. ALexe
• D. Resgen.exe

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct tool for generating a deployment manifest is Mage.exe, as it is specifically designed for managing ClickOnce applications and their manifests. Ngen.exe is used for generating native images, ALexe is for assembly linking, and Resgen.exe is for converting resource files, making them unsuitable for creating deployment manifests.
