I am running the following code on my Windows10 machine with API version 1.19 of Intel Media SDK.

#include<stdio.h>
#include"mfxvideo++.h"

void main() {
    printf("this is a new program using intel media sdk");

    mfxSession SWsess;
    mfxVersion SWver = {0,1}, ver;
    mfxStatus sts;

    sts = MFXInit(MFX_IMPL_SOFTWARE, &SWver, &SWsess);
 
    if (MFX_ERR_NONE == sts) {
        MFXQueryVersion(SWsess, &ver);
        printf("Implementation version: %d.%d and API version: %d.%d", SWver.Major, SWver.Minor, ver.Major, ver.Minor);
    }
 
    MFXClose(SWsess);
 
    getchar();
}

I made the project in Visual Studio 2015 but received following errors

However, in Visual Studio 2012 the aforementioned code runs fine. Please advise what should I do to upgrade my project to Visual Studio 2015?

What I have tried:

I faced LNK2019 in Visual Studio 2017RC (Refer here) so I rolled back to Visual Studio 2015 and 2012. Solutions available for the errors on this or other forums are not working for me. For warning LNK4098, I couldn't conclude which libraries to ignore.
