A registration context provided by an external registration tool. The context can be used to create registry keys, log registration activity, and obtain information about the component being registered.

The following registry entries are created by the ProvideObjectAttribute class:
<VSROOT>\CLSID\{ObjectGuid}
<VSROOT>\CLSID\{ObjectGuid}\@=ObjectType.FullName
<VSROOT>\CLSID\{ObjectGuid}\InprocServer32=mscoree.dll
