      By default (according to the documentation), the `cpp.generateManifestFile` is enabled, but it does not adds the MSVC linker command like "/MANIFEST:EMBED". So, the resulting shared library (dll) becomes without of a manifect resource at all...

      But, for the CppApplication, the `cpp.generateManifestFile` does work.

      UPD: This bug present in the Qbs sources up to last 3.x
