Deploy VS2010 Extension (VSIX) and register new file extension on windows

I've created a VS2010 extension to manage a new type of project. I've created the VSIX file with the project and item templates inside, and everything works fine, i'm able to create a new project, syntax highlight, compile it, etc.

What i want to d开发者_JAVA百科o now is to associate my files (.stadyn) to the VS2010, like a .cs file. I mean, give it an icon and open the VS2010 on a double-click.

Does anybody know how to deploy the extension and add those keys to windows registry?

Thanks in advance.

You have to possibilities.

1. Create an installer for your extension which is doing all the stuff.
2. Add the file associations when the extensions first starts.

I would prefer option one, since then you can also uninstall your extension and unregister the file associations and may be do other cleanup stuff. Also you could do other stuff during the install.

Edit:

Deployment is documented in the MSDN:
