COM typelibrary for Office 2010 IM integration

问题:

I am integrating Office applications with custom IM solution. I have implemented the COM class as suggested by http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj900715.aspx

I have also registered the COM implementation and hosted the COM server in my exe.

Do I also need to additionally register the typelibrary of my com class ?

I am seeing issues with type library regsitration and lync client 2013.

When I uninstall the type library, Lync Client breaks

Generic COM Exception. Code is 0x80080005.
at Microsoft.Lync.Model.LyncClient.EnsureOI()
at Microsoft.Lync.Model.LyncClient.GetClient()

I understand that Lync 2013 provides its own typelib which I am overwriting.

Is it required for me to register my typelib for Office integration to work ?

回答1:

I realize this question is dated but I ran into this problem today. I found this article that points to having both Lync 2010 and Lync 2013 installed on the same machine.

Uninstalling Lync 2010 worked perfectly for me. COM operations began working immediately.
