Hi all,
Please forgive me if this has been answered already, I looked around the
group and I couldn't find anything that jumped out at me.
We utilize Informatica in our environment as an ETL tool for a Data
Warehouse solution. I currently develop most of our custom solutions in
VB.NET that may be utilized by a COM+ call such a BizTalk Server or other
custom application.
We are trying to develop an Informatica solution that will connect to a use
a custom COM DLL that I have written but the Informatica side will only
recoginze VB6 DLL's that I have in place, it looks for the TypeLib entry in
the registry related to the CLSID in the registry for the component it's
linking to.
Is there a way I can still develop the COM components in .NET, and make them
compatibile with the old style of VB6 COM development so that our custom
Informatica solution will recognize it?
TIA
-Rich

Basically, you need to use tlbexp to create a typelibrary from your .NET
library and then you can register the component as a COM component.
Not an area, I've really had to deal with - but I think the IDE can do
this for you. I think there is a project property that gives you the
option to develop for COM interop...
Anyway, maybe someone can give you more specific details if you have
further questions :).
