Description
Registers an in-process ActiveX server in the current module within the system registry.
Do not call DllRegisterServer directly. DllRegisterServer is exported by in-process ActiveX servers (DLLs) and instructs the DLL to create its registry entries for the type library and all classes supported in that server module. DLLRegisterServer is usually called when the ActiveX server is installed on a user's system.
If this function fails, the state of the registry for its type library and its classes is indeterminate.
The return values for DllRegisterServer are as follows:
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
|
S_OK |
The registry entries were created successfully. |
|
E_FAIL |
The registry entries were not completed. |
Note: DllRegisterServer is one of four functions in the Comserv unit that every in-process server must export so that Windows can manage the server resources properly. The others are DllCanUnloadNow, DllGetClassObject, and DllUnregisterServer.
