Hi all,
I have a C# DLL containing only interfaces that I want to have a TLB (type
library) generated for.
For that I use the "Register for COM Interop" compiler option but it gives
me the error
*******************
Building satellite assemblies...
Registering project output for COM Interop...
COM Interop registration failed. There are no registrable types in the built
assembly.
---------------------- Done ----------------------
Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped
*******************
Even with this error my TLB was well generated but it makes my build script
think that the build didn't succeed, which is not acceptable for me.
I understand why this is happening: this is because there are no types in my
assembly that are creatable. But that shouldn't lead to an error but rather
to a simple warning?? right? (please correct me if I am wrong)
Anybody knows a workaround so that my TLB will get generated and my build
result will not be a failure?
(from what I remember back in time using VB6 and VC6, it was acceptable to
have COM DLLs composed uniquely of "PublicNonCreatable" COM objects...)
Thanks
Eric

Use TlbImp instead of RegAsm

Err:
read TlbExp instead of TlbImp

So you are suggesting to not use the "Register COM Interop" option in VSNET2003 and rather use a PostBuild step that will call TlbExp..
Using PostBuild steps it is also possible to call
regasm myasm.dll /TLB:myasm.tlb
which produces the same effect without errors (compared to VSNET2003 check box) and additionnaly registers the tlb in the registry.
Thanks for your help

Oops, small problem!
It appears that VSNET2003, by default, is not able to find regasm when used in post build steps!!!
Is there a way to solve that ? (hardcoding the path to the file is not acceptable because it won't work when others will build the solution)
If I use TLBEXP, will my tlb registered in the registry?
If not, how do I have it registered?
Thanks

Don't think so If not, how do I have it registered?
Use RegSvr32.exe maybe
