public void GetAssemblyNameForCache (string TypeLibPath, out string CachePath);
abstract member GetAssemblyNameForCache : string * string -> unit
override this.GetAssemblyNameForCache : string * string -> unit
Public Sub GetAssemblyNameForCache (TypeLibPath As String, ByRef CachePath As String)

Parameters

TypeLibPath
String

Exceptions

TypeLibPath is null.

The caller does not have the required permission.

The specified path, file name, or both exceed the system-defined maximum length.

TypeLibPath contains a colon (:) in the middle of the string.

Remarks

For an unmanaged COM+ component to be published through .NET remoting as a SOAP endpoint, a proxy needs to be generated to make the unmanaged components available to the .NET Framework. This is done by programmatically performing the same steps as Type Library Importer (Tlbimp.exe), the Windows SDK tool that is used to convert unmanaged COM+ type libraries to proxy metadata assemblies. For client activation over SOAP to succeed, however, client and server machines must share the same strong-named signed metadata proxies. For this reason, when a managed proxy assembly is generated for an unmanaged COM+ component, a strong name key is also generated and used to sign the proxy assembly.
