Hello,

I'm trying to realize a configurable COM server reading the configuration settings from an xml. The problem is that as I have seen on the different tutorials the association of the COM server with a specific file extension is performed through the COMServerAssociation attribute which needs a Constant value for the file extension which is an information I would like to associate at RunTime during the registration of the server.

Does someone know if there is a different way to associate the COM server to a specific file at runtime and not at complile using anyway SharpShell?

Thanks,

Matteo

I don't know how to perform the association of the COM server with a specific file extension in any different way in respect of using COMServerAssociation.
