Bloomberglp.Blpapi Adding Reference

I am new to Bloomberg API, trying to develop my first C# application.

I have installed the blp API. I have with Visual Studio 2008 added a reference to blpapicomLib COM object.

I have defined and alias like this:

using SessionOptions = blpapicomLib.SessionOptions;

When I try to create a new SessionOptions like this:

SessionOptions sessionOptions = new SessionOptions();

I receive the error:

Error 1 Cannot create an instance of the abstract class or interface 'blpapicomLib.SessionOptions' C:\AMSFeederTest\VarPricesLib\VarPricesLib\VarPrices.cs 23 45 VarPricesLib

What library reference should I add to my project ?

using Session = Bloomberglp.Blpapi.Session;
using SessionOptions = Bloomberglp.Blpapi.SessionOptions;

SessionOptions sessionOptions = new SessionOptions();
sessionOptions.ServerHost = serverHost; //localhost
sessionOptions.ServerPort = serverPort; //8194

Session session = new Session(sessionOptions);
