vb DLL question (Solidworks API)

Discussion in 'SolidWorks' started by Sean Phillips, Oct 6, 2003.

  1. Ive made a solidworks add-in DLL. if i drag and drop my DLL into
    solidworks everything is fine. then if i want to make changes to the
    DLL. when i go back into solidworks i get an error. so i remove the
    DLL from the registry using regedit. then drag and drop the DLL back
    into solidworks. and everything is fine again. there must be a better
    way to test my DLL then having to remove it from the registry every
    time. does anyone have some insight on this.

    thanks.

  2. in the Project menu, select the "Project Properties" at the bottom of the
    menu, then select the "Component" tab and check either the "Project
    Compatibility" or the "Binary Compatibility" to generate a new DLL with the
    same CLSID as the previous version.
