I have a shell extension in VS 6. I am porting the code to VS 2005.
After porting, how can I register the dll from IDE?
In VS 6, there is a option to register control from tools menu but I
could not find the similar option in VS 2005. I am very new to this.
So, please help me.
Also, when I start the debuggin from VS 2005, the dll is locked by VS
2005. I have to close the IDE everytime to rebuild it. Can someone
also provide some hints for this problem.
go to your project settings -linker -register output.
set that flag to yes, and your dll will be registered after a successful
build.
I don't know why VS keeps the control locked. Someone must be holding on to
it.
Are all references closed correctly when the client application exits?

Remove only "_nos_pam"
Thanks a lot!
For locking I have no idea. In VS 6, the dll is locked by Windows
explorer as it is shell extension but not by VS 6 itself. But in VS
2005, after build it has a lock and I have to close it to remove that
lock.
