Steve,
Put the #import statement before class the declaration in the header file.
Also watch out for the namespaces, by default #import puts the declarations
in a namespace.
You can use no_namespace option to the override this.
Please see the generated tlh and tli file.
If this doesn't help, post some code or send me (remove "online." from id)
a repro project and I can take a look.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
