C2882: 'ClassLibrary2' : illegal use of namespace identifier in expression

37 Views Asked by At

I am working on a class library project using c++ to create the function that I want to use to call the function from my windows application. When I try this:

ClassLibrary2a^ class1a = gcnew ClassLibrary2a;

I am getting the errors:

C2882: 'ClassLibrary2a' : illegal use of namespace identifier in expression

C2065: 'class1a' : undeclared identifier

C2061: syntax error : identifier 'ClassLibrary2a'

I have added the ClassLibrary2a dll in the reference but it have make no different as I am still getting the same errors.

Here is my form code:

#pragma once


namespace test_window_application {

    using namespace System;
    using namespace System::ComponentModel;
    using namespace System::Collections;
    using namespace System::Windows::Forms;
    using namespace System::Data;
    using namespace System::Drawing;
    using namespace ClassLibrary2a;

        void InitializeComponent(void)
        {
            this->button1 = (gcnew System::Windows::Forms::Button());
            this->SuspendLayout();
            // 
            // button1
            // 
            this->button1->Location = System::Drawing::Point(78, 116);
            this->button1->Name = L"button1";
            this->button1->Size = System::Drawing::Size(75, 23);
            this->button1->TabIndex = 0;
            this->button1->Text = L"button1";
            this->button1->UseVisualStyleBackColor = true;
            this->button1->Click += gcnew System::EventHandler(this, &Form1::button1_Click);
            //

            this->ClientSize = System::Drawing::Size(284, 262);
            this->Controls->Add(this->button1);
            this->Name = L"Form1";
            this->Text = L"Form1";
            this->ResumeLayout(false);

        }
#pragma endregion
    private: System::Void button1_Click(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) {
                 //ClassLibrary2a^ class1a = gcnew ClassLibrary2a::Class1;
                 ClassLibrary2a^ class1a = gcnew ClassLibrary2a;
                 

             }
    };
}

Here is the ClassLibrary2a code:

// ClassLibrary2a.h

#pragma once

using namespace System;
using namespace System::ComponentModel;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;
using namespace System::Data;
using namespace System::Diagnostics;
using namespace System::IO;


[CODE]namespace ClassLibrary2a {

    public ref class Class1
    {
        // TODO: Add your methods for this class here.
        public: void MyMethodNew() {
            // Do something in the method
            //ContactsControl^ contact = gcnew ContactsControl();
            //contact->label1->Text = "hello chris";
            MessageBox::Show("message", "title");
        }
    };

    
}

I dont really understand why I am getting the errors as it doesn't make any sense. I have included the using namespace ClassLibrary2a but it have make no different. I am using managed c++/cli

Do you know why I am getting the errors?

Do you know how I can fix it?

I have tried everything included the namespace and added in the reference but it have make no different. I couldn't be able to find out myself how to resolve it.
