The SelfReg table contains information about modules that need to be self registered. The installer calls the DllRegisterServer function during installation of the module; it calls DllUnregisterServer during uninstallation of the module. The installer does not self register EXE files.
The SelfReg table has the following columns.
Column | Type | Key | Nullable |
---|---|---|---|
File_ | Identifier | Y | N |
Cost | Integer | N | Y |
File_
External key into the first column of the File table indicating the module that needs to be registered.
Cost
The cost of registering the module in bytes. This must be a non-negative number.
Installation package authors are strongly advised against using self registration. Instead they should register modules by authoring one or more tables provided by the installer for this purpose. For more information, see Registry Tables Group. Many of the benefits of having a central installer service are lost with self registration because self-registration routines tend to hide critical configuration information. Reasons for avoiding self registration include:
Note
You cannot specify the order in which the installer registers or unregisters self-registering DLLs by using the SelfRegModules and SelfUnRegModules actions. See Specifying the Order of Self Registration.
