I have a class like this:

namespace Token1.Token2.Token3
{
    public class Class1
    {
    }
}

And another class like this:

namespace Token2.Token4.Token5
{
    public class Class1
    {
    }
}

The first class is a part of my project, the second class is from a framework library developed by another group within my organization. Notice the namespace of the first class has Token2 in the second place and the namespace of the second class has Token2 in the first place.

The problem I am having is that I can't seem to reference the second class within the first because of what looks like a namespace collision. If I try to do this in the first class:

namespace Token1.Token2.Token3
{
    public class Class1
    {
        var frameworkClass1 = new Token2.Token4.Token5.Class1();
    }
}

the Visual Studio IDE highlights Token4 in red and says "Cannot resolve symbol 'Token4'". If I hover my mouse over Token2 where I am new'ing up Class1, intellisense shows me "namespace Token1.Token2" so it is clearly seeing the namespace of my project class and not seeing the namespace of my framework class.

It would be very difficult to change the namespace of either class library due to the amount of code already in place. Is there a way to get around this?
