System.Net namespace

[kodeguruguy]

I'm trying to use the System.Net namsepace since it's required for the IPHostEntry class, but when I declare using namspace System.Net, I get an error. Am I not declaring this right or what's wrong?

Thanks

Why was my post moved? It's C++ related!

[Andreas Masur]

Your post was moved to the appropriate forum since your question is dependent on the .NET framework.

Furthermore...what kind of error do you get?

[kodeguruguy]

Here are the errors I get:

C:\Documents and Settings\BekaryanA\My Documents\Micro-controller files\HWIL\HWIL.cpp(9) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '.'


C:\Documents and Settings\BekaryanA\My Documents\Micro-controller files\HWIL\HWIL.cpp(9) : error C2873: 'System' : symbol cannot be used in a using-declaration


C:\Documents and Settings\BekaryanA\My Documents\Micro-controller files\HWIL\HWIL.cpp(9) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '.'

where line(9) is where I have typed: using namespace System.Net;

Thanks for the response. This is the second time you moved my thread and I wasn't sure why (I'm new to the site).

using namespace System::Net;

[Andreas Masur]

Ooohh...and you need the correct assembly as well...thus

#using <System.dll>

using namespace System::Net;

I was thinking in terms of C# before which does it differently...sorry about that... :rolleyes:

[kodeguruguy]

I tried what you suggested, but now I'm getting another error

fatal error C1190: managed targeted code requires '#using <mscorlib.dll>' and '/clr' option

Would anyone happen to know the solution to this?

Thanks

You are trying to mix managed and unmanaged code. In general a bad idea, unless you REALLY know what you are doing.

When I added:

#using <System.dll>
using namespace System::Net;


It asked for
mscorlib.dll



when I added that, it asked for compile option /clr

when I added that, it said /clr was incompatible with /Zd

no end in site,

any help appreciated

Sytem.dll missing afer #using in previous post.

Allen,

As I stated before, you are trying to mix managed (which requires the /clr switch) and unmanaged (as indicated by the /Zd switch).

Unless you have a really solid grasp of all of the issues involved you should really stay with one or the other.

Either migrate your code to be managed (every class is __gc and all files compiled with /clr) or unmanaged (in which case you use the COM versions of interfaces).
