This is great, but I'd also like to see support for out-of-process self-registration (e.g. *.exe). Would love to do it myself, but I'm not experienced in that kind of thing. All I know is it will require kicking off another process, running the exe with /register (or whatever), and capturing the registry information. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Derek (derekc) Date: 2006-04-17 00:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=518766 I'm not sure if this is possible, but I'm updating it to a Heat category in case it is (now that tallow is being deprecated). The problem is that Heat and Tallow currently re-direct the registry for their own process so all the self-reg keys automatically get caught. Not sure if this method or a similar one could be adopted for something in a separate process. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Zeinrich (zeinrich) Date: 2005-12-08 14:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1174566 Typelibraries would be another great example! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: colsnell (colsnell) Date: 2005-02-15 03:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1126466 This feature would be fantastic. RegSpy2 (in the Windows Installer / Tools & Tips section of installsite.org) gives the source code in C++ for extracting the out of process info. As above I'd love to do it myself but that is way out of my league. I'm not sure what the licensing is on this as it doesn't say anyway in the release notes or code. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642717&aid=1003089&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
