registering assembly upon deployment

Hi all,
I am creating a setup and deployment project for a signed assembly and
need to register it when it is installed. How can set it to register when it
is installed?

Thanks.

What do you mean register, put it into the gac? Use gacutil with reference
counting.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I need to use it in the <OBJECT> tag of an HTML
file. So I need to register it with windows.

Visual Studio Setup&Deployment projects have a vsdrxRegister property for
this (that x might be an 'a' or a 'p' depending on your project). It works
by running regasm /regfile when you build the MSI file, and the resulting
data is in the MSI file for use at install time. It doesn't register type
library info though.
