My script "RealPlayer What Im Listening To" uses a dll that I made.. It is in the top level of the plsc file along with ScriptInfo.xml
ScriptInfo.xml is:

<ScriptInfo xmlns="urn:msgpluscripts" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <Information>
        <Name>RealPlayer - What Im Listening To</Name>
        <Description>Extracts the track and artist from the title of a RealPlayer window and sets it as what you are listening to</Description>
    </Information>
    <DotNetFiles>
        <FileName>RealMSNDll.dll</FileName>
    </DotNetFiles>
</ScriptInfo>

However, the dll is not registered automaticaly when the script is installed.
If I register it manualy then it works fine.
I am doing all this from an admin account so thats not the problem.

Any ideas about what the problem is? Does it work for anyone?

If you want it to register with regsvr32 use the OleFiles node instead of DotNetFiles. DotNetFiles uses RegAsm, which is for .NET libraries.

oh ok... the help file says it is the other way around:

Example 2
ScriptInfo file used to create a Script Pack. During import, the "ExtraFuncVB.dll" ActiveX will be registered with resvr32. The "ExtraFuncCSharp.dll" .NET Object will be registered for COM Interop with regasm.

<ScriptInfo xmlns="urn:msgplus:scripts" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="urn:msgplus:scripts PlusScripts.xsd">

    <Information>
        <Name>Test Script</Name>
        <Description>This script is an example from the documentation.</Description>
    </Information>

    <OleFiles>
        <FileName>ExtraFuncCSharp.dll</FileName>
    </OleFiles>
   
    <DotNetFiles>
        <FileName>ExtraFuncVB.dll</FileName>
    </DotNetFiles>

</ScriptInfo>

Maybe there's a little error there (in what you posted, I mean)? If your library uses .NET, place it under DotNetFiles, otherwise place it under OleFiles.

There is/was indeed and error in the documentation Patchou wrote. He knows about it now and should be fixed soon if it isn't already fixed now.

ogilvie: Don't forget to submit your updated script .
