DLL generated in ActiveQt Project cannot be found in COM components

[Vincent_yw]

Hi everyone,

I created a ActiveQt project using VS2015, but the generated 64-bit DLL cannot be found in the VS2015(Tools - Choose toolbox Items - COM components).

I tried to use the regservr32.exe in both system32 and sysWOW64, they all failed.

I noticed that the dll was successfully registrated because I can find the related items in the registry.

I also tried to generated 32-bit DLL, it can be found in VS2015.

What should I do?
Thanks

Best regards,
Vincent

I might be wrong, but i never heard of a 64bit Visual Studio?!
So it makes perfect sense that a 32bit application can't load a 64bit library.

At first I only tried 64bit DLL, and I found nothing in COM components in VS. So I clicked the button in the dialog and tried to load DLL manually, but I got error: "Self-registration for x.dll failed."

Then I generated 32bit DLL and it can be found in COM components. I also clicked the button in the dialog and tried to load 64bit DLL, but the item in COM components is still a 32bit DLL. What's more, I didnt get the error.

@Vincent_yw
sorry, i don't get what you want to say?

@raven-worx Yes, it is a 32bit VS. But I found some 64bit DLL in the COM components. Thanks.
