Assembly metadata is stored in Manifest. Manifest contains all the metadata needed to do the
following things (See Figure Manifest View for more details):
- Version of assembly
- Security identity
- Scope of the assembly
- Resolve references to resources and classes.
The assembly manifest can be stored in either a PE file (an .exe or .dll) with
Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) code or in a stand-alone PE file that
contains only assembly manifest information.
