[REQUEST]RegAsm.exe & Assembly Registration

[Ken@fri]

@ OnePiece, Nonno Fabio, Kels & rick

I have few problems with my PDFCreator 0.9.7 addon (See a part of my INF file).

For registration of "pdfforge.dll", I use this command :

"""%10%\%DotNET11%\RegAsm.exe %16422%\PDFCreator\PlugIns\pdfforge\pdfforge.dll"" /codebase"

NO SUCCESS.(See normal regentries).

I tried to manually generate "pdfforge.dll" regentries with command below : :

"""%10%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\RegAsm.exe %16422%\PDFCreator\PlugIns\pdfforge\pdfforge.dll"" /regfile:pdfforge.reg"

But, it's failed. :sweatingbullets:

where I'm wrong?

Thanx for ur help?

I think your quotes are messed up, try:

"%10%\%DotNET11%\RegAsm.exe ""%16422%\PDFCreator\PlugIns\pdfforge\pdfforge.dll"" /codebase"

"%10%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\RegAsm.exe ""%16422%\PDFCreator\PlugIns\pdfforge\pdfforge.dll"" /regfile:pdfforge.reg"

Hello ricks !

U're right about my previous post.

If u have any time, I've another question (again...)

Any idea about how to generate a .BPD file(Binary PostScript Printer Description) from a PPD file & to fix dynamically its path?

'coz, in my case, after install, PDFCreat.BPD is created in "C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3" and this path is hard-coded in the PDFcreat.BPD (see img below). And I try to create it & to dynamically indicate its path.

Detailed info about .BPD file from FILExt

Text-based PostScript Printer Description files (.ppd files) describe a PostScript printer's characteristics. The Pscript driver for Microsoft Windows 2000 and later supports .PPD files that are compatible with version 4.3 of the PPD specification from Adobe Systems, Inc. Pscript reads a printer's .PPD file and converts the text into a binary format, stored locally as a .BPD file that is regenerated every time the .PPD file changes. These files are generally found in the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\DRIVERS\W32X86\3 directory.

Thanx for help.
