    My project is using c++ under the structure of xaml and directx. 

    Can this project use c# project as a reference project?

    I managed to add the c# project into my c++ project, but encountered errors when trying using "#using ...refereceproject.namespace..."

    Any comment is helpful and thank you in advance.

    Yes, this should be possible - the easiest way is generally:

    1. Package your C# project as a Windows runtime component (in Visual Studio: go to File -> New Project, and select Windows Runtime Component under the C# section)
    2. Add a reference to the C# project from your C++ project (right click C++ project -> References -> Add New Reference and select your C# project)
    3. You should now be able to reference and use the C# project

    A "using" declaration would then look something like:

    using namespace WindowsRuntimeComponent1;
