Register a .NET DLL with Activate Library mode

Question

I have a couple of .NET classes build to DLL files. I use regsvcs.exe to register them to make them available in COM+ (VBscript) environments.

All those registered components are setup as Activation => Server application. This make this components runs in dllhost.exe.

As I run this in IIS with classic ASP I want to run it as Library applicationas this is 3times faster.

I did not find a option in regsvcs.exe how to set this on registration. So anyone knows how to set this programmatically?

For those who seek this information, as I found it out myself already:

  COMAdminCatalog catalog = new COMAdminCatalog();
  COMAdminCatalogCollection applications = catalog.GetCollection("Applications");
  applications.Populate();
  foreach (COMAdminCatalogObject application in applications)
  {
    // list needs to be extended if more components needs registration
    if (application.Name == "your component name")
    {
      //application.set_Value("Authentication", 2);
      //application.set_Value("Identity", userName);
      //application.set_Value("Password", password);
      application.set_Value("Activation", "Inproc");
    }
  }
  applications.SaveChanges();
