WinRT c++: get package family name

Question

On C# one can use the following code:

Package.Current.Id.FamilyName

I could not find anywhere information on how to do this using C++. It seems I need to use WRL for this.

I use Microsoft Visual C++ 2015.

You can use C++ language projection for WinRT, more details here. Then you can use Package::Current().Id().FamilyName() to get package family name.
