Question

Geneally all MEF examples use class libraries as ".dll". Is it possible to use ActiveX Conrols (.ocx files instead of "dll" files") from MEF directly.?

Best Wishes

Solution

No. The Managed Extensibility Framework is a .NET technology. It can only handle DLL files which are .NET assemblies.

OCX files are native libraries containing a COM type library. They are not .NET assemblies.
