Error in compilation of a library

MadDan

Hello,
I am having problems when trying to compile a library that is supposed to work with Visual Studio.
I get this error:
#error Building MFC application with /MD[d] (CRT dll version) requires MFC shared dll version. Please #define _AFXDLL or do not use /MD[d]
from the afx.h file.

There are a lot of soltion on the internet, but all are assuming that one is using VS to handle the project. I am using Qt creator with Qt 5.9.1 .
Is there a way around to solve this issue?

Please let me know if the problem is not clear or more details are needed.
Thanks

well it says to define _AFXDLL. This can be easily done in your .pro file by adding DEFINES += _AFXDLL

Alternatively most VS project settings result in a simple call parameter on the compiler. The same compiler is used by QtCreator. So you can also set compiler parameters by adding QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -O1 for example.
