Adding Custom Controls dll to Visual Studio ToolBox

Question

I have a custom control DLL. How can I add these custom controls to VS2008 tool box programatically?

Answer 1

There are several ways to do it:

As explained at MSDN Tutorial: Installing Controls By Using the Toolbox Controls Installer you do it from an installer.

There's also another possibility using a command line program available on CodePlex. You use this application with your favorite installer or you can invoke it manually.
