[RESOLVED] Dll and its location

I have created a C# dll and call that dll in my VC++

In my VC++ i simplly have included

Code:

---

#import "C:\Mydot-net-projects\sManagedDLL\sManagedDLL\bin\Debug\sManagedDLL.tlb"

---

...
...
I run this to register my dll and create the tlb file

Code:

---

>RegAsm.exe smanageddll.dll /tlb:smanageddll.tlb /codebase

---

Code:

---

    HRESULT hr = CoInitialize(NULL);
    ICalculatorPtr pICalc(__uuidof(ManagedClass));

....               
    char_t *p=static_cast<wchar_t *>(pICalc->Get(szTemp1,szTemp2)); // call the Dll

---

Now The problem is that my VC++ caller expects the Dll to be found at a fixed location on C drive
which is
C:\Mydot-net-projects\sManagedDLL\sManagedDLL\obj\Debug .
That is becuase once the dll is deleted from that folder the Vc++ crashes when its attempting to call the dll

Whatsetting do I need to change on my C# project to make sure the VC++.EXE caller can find the dll where the .EXE is residing rather than
C:\Mydot-net-projects\sManagedDLL\sManagedDLL\obj\Debug becuase once the dll

I can actually run this on my PC where the tbl points to my dll where it was created.
Once the EXE goes into another machine because that folder s not there with the DLL in it it wont work.

Hello,
i am facing the same problem, how did u solve it?

HI
I m sorry but I dont recall what the remedy was.
I somehow fixed the issue and the project is working but Cant remember what I did.

hello,
can you please try to remember it, i've been woring on that since a week and no results for the moment.
Thank you in advance

give me your email and i will send u my proj on MONDAY , its the Weekend now

You just need to register the dll on the target machine (I.e. run regasm.exe).

In compliment to what Aray said I hope you have not forgotten to register your dll

>RegAsm.exe smanageddll.dll /tlb:smanageddll.tlb /codebase
You have to run this command before being able to call the dll from C++.
