I’m wondering if it possible to register assemblies with COM without having to register it with the GAC. We need to deploy some .net libraries that are exposed to classic asp using a CCW. But deployments are a nightmare.
Yeap, use
regasm.exewith/codebasekey for that. When you useregasm.exewithout/codebaseit only writes the filename of the assmebly to the registry and so the .NET runtime can’t find it unless the assembly is in the GAC. With/codebaseit will write the full path and .NET will be happy to find the assembly when the consumer callsCoCreateInstance().
