Are you trying to use a C# library with native C++?

If this is native C++ why are you using the C# compiler to process it? And a couple of other issues:
1. Please show the actual code that causes the error rather than just a couple of words. The context is always important.
2. If you wish to reply to a comment, or an answer, then please use the Reply button above the message. Don't post them as solutions.
3. If you have more information then please use the Improve question link above, and add complete details of what is not working.

And looking at your previous question here it seems you are still confused between C# and C++.

You're still confusing C++ and C#. Again, it seems you typed C++ code into a C# application and expected it to compile. That's not going to happen.
