    Building .tbl

    I'm building COM in C# to be used from C++ application. I've read
    that C++ client should use Type Library file .tlb. But my solution (of
    Class Library) produces only MyCom.dll. So my question is: What should
    I do (in VS 2005) to build .tlb file?

    Thanks,
    Alex

      Alex,

      When you call Regasm.exe to register the .dll file for COM interop, you
      will want to run it once with the /tlb switch. This will produce the type
      library that you can access from your unmanaged applications.

      Hope this helps.

          Thanks, Nicholas, but after I'd ran:
          regasm.exe "mycom.cll" /tlb
          nothing happened. There was no any errors, but nothing was produced,
          I've searched my whole C drive and could not find anything like
          mycom.tbl

          Thanks,
          Alex

              Alex,

              You need to specify the output file name when you use the /tlb option:

              regasm.exe "mycom.dll" /tlb:mycom.tlb
