I've been trying to deal with this for a long time, but could not find any solution.
I have 2 VS2008 projects, one is C# and the other one is C++/CLI.
The C++/CLI project is Win32 and load some external libraries. I've managed to register this dll using regasm with no problems.
The C# project is configured to x86 and references the C++ project.
The problem is that the regasm tool is somewhat unstable when registering my C# dll; it either crashes or shows a quite hard to understand error:
D:\FikusWorks\Source\bin>regasm /tlb SwFCamTree.dll
Microsoft (R) .NET Framework Assembly Registration Utility 2.0.50727.4927 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1998-2004. All rights reserved.

If i open depends on the C# generated dll it only shows dependency with MSCOREE.dll and it is 64bit dll, maybe that is causing the problem, but i have no clue how to load the 32bit version of MSCOREE.dll instead.
Thank you very much!
