in my lib

Answer 1

for anyone like me that this answer did not ring helpful, a second option is to go to: Project Properties->Configuration Properties->General->Project Defaults->.NET Target Framework Version and set it to v4.0

https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedbackdetail/view/806238/unwarranted-linker-errors-using-stl-filestream-class-in-managed-classes-in-c-11-cli has an obscure answer from Microsoft team that fixed my issue.

I also added this answer to another version of the same problem.
