Install C# DLL for COM

[Josef]

Hello,

I have created a C# class library and a want to install it with the help of
a Visual Studio Setup project and register it for COM usage. During
development of the library it was no problem to register the resulting dll on
my computer by the option in the project settings. But in the installation
project it is not enough to set the property "Register" to "vsdrpCOM". What
do I have to do to make the library available for COM usage on another
computer. Is there any additional option in the installation project which
can register the dll or do I have to add some additional source code to my C#
class.

Thanks

Josef,

I'm assuming you've implemented an interop bridge to expose the DLL as a
native COM interface?

http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframewo...tml/bridge.asp

If not, it won't work as a COM object on any machine...

Just to check, are you aware that COM is pre .Net? And registering .Net
libraries for access by other .Net applications is done through the Global
Assembly Cache...
