I am not sure if its managed or unmanaged, its a third party dll that came with its software, the interface is COM (ActiveX). I have added and worked with it through C#, I load them using Add Reference in C# .NET and then find them on the COM tab. Also, when added as reference in the .NET environment they load as Interop.MBTCOMLib i.e with a different name and their copy is local and is in the project directory rather than the directory where they are located.
I tried the GAC utility and its said Failure adding assembly to cache: The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest. The funny thing is clr.FindAssembly() finds it, but clr.AddReference says unable to find assembly. On Mon, Apr 13, 2009 at 11:20 PM, Tribble, Brett <btrib...@ea.com> wrote: > 1.
