Title: add in missing exception when i try to register my add-in with regasm.exe cmd
Post by: bakawakalaka on August 25, 2018, 01:49:37 am

Hi, I try to make add-in that i can install at diferent computers
When I registry my add-in using prompt command "regasm <full dll patch> /codebase" it's work fine.
But if I register using same cmd command then EA just dont see my dll

I know that this problem connected with how regasm registry key of my dll but i cant find diference in use both cmd and prompt

it saved me a lot of work.

Further to Helmut's post - I have a newer version of the tool which can provide additional information e.g. Registry Tree view which may help.  For details and download link go to  http://tools.exploringea.co.uk/index.php?n=EaInspector.Development (http://tools.exploringea.co.uk/index.php?n=EaInspector.Development).

Well, I already using EA Instalation inspector (and also I see vb code on github of this project) but I only found that prompt regasm command and cmd regasm command work different.

Can you give a link to github repository?

Anyway, now I just saved repository HKCR keys Before I did using prompt regasm command and After. Then I compared both files. Finaly I get .reg file that contains all keys that need to install. It's work fine at my computer. Tomorow I will check it on other computers.

Hi

Github for Installation Inspector is on the EXploringEA site and is https://github.com/EXploringEA/EAInstallationInspector
(Note: the code on GitHub is for V4 - not the current development release)

Regarding you problem can you post the contents of your cmd file that you have found doesn't work and I can take a look.

Regards
Adrian
