System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040202)

[vishy]

Hi,

I have following scenario.I have a project(dummy.vbp) developed in
visual basic 6.0, and we are writing tests in MBUnit in a test project
which references dummy.dll.Now, every time we reduild dummy project,
we need to update the GUID in the test project of the dummy dll(for
updating guid, we have written another project in dotnet). It works
fine.
But,now when I am trying to run the updaterGUID project after the
dummy project has been build, I get the following exception
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040202).

What could be the reason for this?
regards
vishy

Hi


it appears to be in your GUIDHelper program at line 16,
what statement is there?

lib=tl.TypeLibInfoFromFile(@"..\..\..\..\..\installer\Files
\dummy.dll");
It seems it was not taking the relative path.When I changed it to
absolute path, it worked.

Hi

maybe you can still use the relative path,
if you set the baseDirectory property of the exec task you're using.

ok,but another thing is I am not getting this error(after using full
path) on a 32-bit machine, but on a 64 bit machine.Any idea?

I've heard of other problems with 64 bit machines,
maybe you should recompile for 64 bit, and try again
