Image Service Tools
The VSSDK includes several tools to help extension builders use the Visual Studio image service.
The Manifest from Resources tool takes a list of image resources (.png or .xaml files) and generates an image manifest file.
The Manifest to Code tool takes an image manifest file and generates a wrapper file to use in C++, C#, VB, or .vsct files.
The Image Library Viewer can load, edit, and search image manifests.
