Register Library Action
The Register Library action registers a COM assembly by using the regsvr32 application program interface. To use this action, provide the path to the COM assembly on the deployed system to be registered. You can also select to use DllInstall, use DllRegiserServer or use both. The default action is to use DllRegisterServer. This action allows for declaring whether the COM assembly should be registered as a 32-bit or 64 bit assembly on 64-bit operating systems.
Please reference Microsoft’s documentation on RegSvr32.exe for more information.
The file action that places the assembly being registered must precede this action.
