Dear all,

I have one exe, it depends on some dll file. And they are interop
assemblies.

I run regasm /codebase, the application can run up sucessfully.

But if I only run regasm without /codebase, and install the dll to GAC, then
the application fail to start. It said "failed to
initialize.........CLSID:{.....}"

Regards,
Ken Lin

Sounds like the reason could be that its dependencies (the interop
assemblies) are not found. Where are hey located relative to the
application directory?
