I just finished building my new COM project (C#, .NET 3.5). This project will be called by a VFP application. It’s working great on my development machine, but now I need to know how to deploy it on the user’s machine. Click Once isn’t available for this kind of project, so I guess I’m stuck with manually distributing the DLL.
So, where should I put the DLL and how do I register it?
BTW, the 3.5 framework is already installed on the user’s machine.
TIA
I’ve really never used RegSvr32 with .Net assemblies, rather I use the regasm with the /codebase option:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\regasm.exe /codebase mydll.dllYou can also use the /tlb option to export the type library and register it.
Of course the easiest way, just create an installer with vstudio and it will do this for you.
