I have accomplished this on my machine with vs2005 but how can I deploy
the dll on a web server for example?

Has anyone made a deployment project that does this?

this is my class:

<ComClass(StringEncoder.ClassId, StringEncoder.InterfaceId,
StringEncoder.EventsId)> <System.Serializable()> _
    Public Class StringEncoder
    Public Const ClassId As String =
"B9B4F08B-0363-4480-AF23-C6AFCF555FC5"
    Public Const InterfaceId As String =
"6BFAF313-95A2-4636-966E-38EBD4E73569"
    Public Const EventsId As String =
"72914E73-C5AE-4059-89DB-A8E991FE13F4"
    Private _decodedText As String
    Private _encodedText As String
    Private _key As String
    Private _errorText As String

    Public Property EncodedText() As String
        Get
            Return _encodedText
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _encodedText = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property DecodedText() As String
        Get
            Return _decodedText
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _decodedText = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property Key() As String
        Get
            Return _key
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _key = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property ErrorText() As String
        Get
            Return _errorText
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _errorText = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Sub New()
        MyBase.New()
    End Sub

    Sub Decode() as String
    End Sub

    Sub Encode() as String
    End Sub
End Class

Hi,

Use regasm.exe to register the dll

Ok. This seems to be a common issue.
I have registered the dll using regasm but I cant use the dll from my
asp page.

Is registering with regasm enough to make it work?

If I use gacutil on my webserver then it works but do I have to use
gacutil?
Gacutil is rarely mentioned in the .net dll duscussion.

Almost every solution to this issue with .net dlls is to use regasm...

Thanks. /Nicke
