Hello NG,

I started to build me a little class library.
This library I added to a Project which also surves me to test the library.
This library holds a namespace:
namespace <myLib>.<some function>

Now I added a extended Namespace to my library like:
namespace <myLib>.<some other function>

building this dll is no problem, but in the project the new namespace is not
recognized. Why?
if I open the the dll by double click in my project links the object browser
shows <myLib>[Runtime = v2.0.50727] and the
namespace <myLib>.<some function>.
namespace <myLib>.<some other function> is missing....

Thanks for help and hints...

You need to add it. Right-click "references" in Solution Explorer, under the
project where you are using your library, then click "Add Reference". Find the
DLL you compiled and click OK (look through the tabs, and find the one that is
most appropriate for your situation, i.e. whether the library is a project in
this solution, or you want to browse for the library, etc.).

In the file where you want to use that library, just add line:

using <myLib>;

And voilla.

Hi Nilola,

thanks for anwering.
I did exactly as you described it.
From the tabs in the "AddReference" I selected "browse" and then selected
<mylib>.dll
But still I can't get to the namespace!

But in the meanwhile I found the problem.
I added a new Class and VS by default does not add "public" in front of the
class !
instead of
public class <myClass>
{
}
it only creates
class <myClass>
{
}
Thereby the class was not public and I could not access it from within my
project.

Well, thats live....

Regards
Rainer

Hi Rainer,

Glad to know you've found the cause of the issue and sharing your
experience here.

The default class template is not using a public accessor. If you found
that you frequently need to tweak a new class, it's easy to update existing
templates by following this article:

Just updated my class template, so I won't have the problem any more.
