Error 80040154 (Class not registered exception) when initializing VCProjectEngineObject (Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine.dll)

Viewed 109879

I'm trying to run this tool in order to convert a Visual C++ project to makefile. The project I'm trying to convert project is written in VS2008, so I'm using a reference to Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine.dll from version 9.

It fails in this line:

VCProjectEngine vcprojEngine = new VCProjectEngineObject();

With the following exception:

Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {D19A00C4-A7F9-4E14-A5E1-D060B7EB57F3} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)).

When tried to register VCProjectEngine.dll with regsvr32, I got an error that the entry point DllRegisterServer was not found.

Any idea??

Thanks in advance.
