[RESOLVED] ComPlus Applications

Hi All,

I created a dll, which I want to register in component services. Now I tried to do this manually by compiling my dll, (it's got some content xml docs etc that it reads off too) then going into component services, created a new Com+ Application, but when adding my dll to the components folder of the com application, I get the error:

One or more files do not contain components or type libraries, These files cannot be installed.

What am I doing wrong, and what can I do to correct it? Attached is a screenshot

thanks

Have you checked the setting in the project properties that makes your library visible to COM? It's Configuration Properties -> Build -> Register for COM Interop. Make sure you check it for the Release configuration.

Hi there,

Thanks, I just did that.... got it registered... but it doesn't show any methods in my dll... Is there something more I have to do in my code to expose the functions in my dll?

I have no real experience with COM so I'll have to leave you in the hands of others.

ah ok... anyone got some ideas?
