How to reference a .lib file in c# UWP Project

Question

Hi 

     I am working on a Universal Windows (UWP) App. I am integrating a Native C++ Static library (.lib) to my C# project in UWP. I will get only the header files (in include folder) and .lib file (in lib folder). I don't have access to import source.cpp files.
     In this case how do I refer the APIs written in C++ in .lib file to my C# UWP project.

Thanks in Advance
With Regards

Hi Gokul_P_Guna,

Welcome to MSDN forum.

I suggest you could wrap that C++ logic using a WinRT component, and go to file properties window to set build actions as content, and then reference this component in uwp application.
