There is a lot of confusion over marshaling terminology. I don't agree that
type library marshaling is standard marshaling. Standard marshaling is
either P/S or TLB marshaling where the system-provided marshaler does the
work. Marshaling using type library should be called simply
Type-Library-based marshaling, not standard marshaling or universal
marshaling (it doesn't support many of the useful MIDL attributes!!).

My 2 cents.

A bit of confusion over terminology:

typelib marshalling = standard marshalling

you want custom proxy/stub marshalling (as opposed to custom
marhsalling).

unregistering your server removes the class information but not the
interface information as other components may be using the interface and
so require marshalling for it.

If you simply register your proxy/stub dll it will change the interface
key to point at your proxy stub dll as the marshaller rather than the
standard marshaller.

Why do you want to use proxy/stub instead of standard(typelib)
marshalling?

Thanx to Chris and all


I have another question. My inproc componnet is using type library
marshallling.
but i wan't to use standard marshalling, how do i get rid of the
registered
type library
programmatically. Dll unregisterServer calls ATLModuleUnregister but does
not call AtlModuleRegisterTypeLib or AtlModuleunRegisterTypeLib or first
one
with appropriate params.


I am not able to get rid of my typelibrary because, it got registered the
first time i registered my component. When i unregister my componnet
because
of the above it doesn't get unregistered. Even if i register my component
again with a param FALSE to  _Module.RegisterServer(FALSE) it only skips
the
type library regitration, but since it is already installed due to the
prvious registration all my interfaces end up using type library
marshalling.


I think i can unregister it using external tools but i wan't my componnet
to
do it by itself. Or is it o.k if i just delete the Typelib key for that
interface in the registry or is it o.k if i register my ps DLL, i mean
will
it delete the TypeLib key. I am busy getting ps dll merged in to my dll,
so
unable to test all this now. so any help will be appreciated.


Regards
Sudhakar
