COM+ dll component name is missing after adding it to Component Services

Question

I made a COM+ dll in C++ using an ATL project. After the COM+ dll was added to the component services, it doesn't show the component name. A link for the screen shot is given below,

I went through lot of tutorials but couldn't find a proper solution. Is there a way to make the name appear because the name is needed in order to use the COM+ dll as an WCF.

Answer 1

The name doesn't appear because it is not set in the .rgs file. I have given a sample below, change the code accordingly then it should show the component name

HKCR
{
    FEDTab = s 'RepDO Class'
{
    CLSID = s '{8949D894-3C9B-4430-8C66-7B2DC3DE7F2D}'
}
    DataObjects.RepDO = s 'RepDO Class'
{
    CLSID = s '{8949D894-3C9B-4430-8C66-7B2DC3DE7F2D}'
    CurVer = s 'FEDTab'
}
NoRemove CLSID
{
    ForceRemove {8949D894-3C9B-4430-8C66-7B2DC3DE7F2D} = s 'ProcessImage Class'
    {
        ProgID = s 'FEDTab'
        VersionIndependentProgID = s 'DataObjects.RepDO'
        ForceRemove Programmable
        InprocServer32 = s '%MODULE%'
        {
            val ThreadingModel = s 'Both'
        }
        TypeLib = s '{C40C7D67-7D49-4291-B0C2-10DAA7824FD0}'
        Version = s '1.0'
    }
}

.rgs file could be found inside the ATL project folder
