How to register 64bit com dll?

I create x86 ism project, and add the 32bit com dll() into component, set it as key file, set "COM Extract at build" to yes. after installation, the com dll is registered successfully.

But create x64 ism project, and add the 64bit com dll(TestCOM_X64.dll) into component, set it as key file, set "COM Extract at build" to yes. during build, I get the following warnings:
*******************************
Searching project for extract-at-build components...
Extracting COM data from 1 component(s)
ISDEV : warning -4354: The build was unable to extract COM information from the file D:\Output\DEST_DIR\internal\AMD64\TestCOM_X64.dll in component SetupComDll_X64. Please ensure that the file is self-registering and verify that the self-registration process does not fail.
*********************************

It seems that Installshield does not handle the 64bit com dll register.

I run "regsvr32 TestCOM_X64.dll" on x64 OS, it works fine. and all the com classes work fine.

I want to know:

Whether do installshield support 64bit com dll register? if yes, how to do it?

Thanks

InstallShield currently supports the 64-bit COM Self-Registration, but does not support the 64-bit COM Extraction at Build.
