C++ Qt5 Net-snmp LNK Error

I have downloaded net-snmp from http://softlayer-ams.dl.sourceforge.net/project/net-snmp/net-snmp%20binaries/5.7-binaries/net-snmp-5.7.0-1.x86.exe

and installed.

Now, I am trying to follow this tutorial to get stated (http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:Simple_Application)

I am trying to use net-snmp in my C++ Qt5 applicaton with VC++ 2010 Compiler but I get the following error

snmptest.obj:-1: Fehler: LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__generate_Ku referenced in    function "public: void __thiscall SnmpTest::doSnmp(void)" (?doSnmp@SnmpTest@@QAEXXZ)

snmptest.obj:-1: Fehler: LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__snmp_sess_init referenced in function "public: void __thiscall SnmpTest::doSnmp(void)" (?doSnmp@SnmpTest@@QAEXXZ)

snmptest.obj:-1: Fehler: LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__init_snmp referenced in function "public: void __thiscall SnmpTest::doSnmp(void)" (?doSnmp@SnmpTest@@QAEXXZ)

C:\build\debug\a.exe:-1: Fehler: LNK1120: 4 unresolved externals

snmptest.obj:-1: Fehler: LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__usmHMACMD5AuthProtocol

I added this line to my *.pro file:

win32:INCLUDEPATH += "C:\snmp_5.7.0\include"

SnmpTest.h

#ifndef SNMPTEST_H
#define SNMPTEST_H

#include <QDebug>
#include <net-snmp/net-snmp-config.h>
#include <net-snmp/net-snmp-includes.h>
#include <net-snmp/library/transform_oids.h>

class SnmpTest
{
public:
    SnmpTest();
    void doSnmp();
};

#endif // SNMPTEST_H

SnmpTest.cpp

SnmpTest::SnmpTest()
{
}

void SnmpTest::doSnmp()
{
    const char *our_v3_passphrase = "XXXXX";
    struct snmp_session session, *ss;
    struct snmp_pdu *pdu;
    struct snmp_pdu *response;

    oid anOID[MAX_OID_LEN];
    size_t anOID_len = MAX_OID_LEN;

    struct variable_list *vars;
    int status;

    /*
    * Initialize the SNMP library
    */
    init_snmp("snmpapp");

    snmp_sess_init(&session);
    session.peername = "xxxxx";
    session.version=SNMP_VERSION_3;

    /* set the SNMPv3 user name */
    session.securityName = _strdup("YYYY");
    session.securityNameLen = strlen(session.securityName);

    /* set the security level to authenticated, but not encrypted */
    session.securityLevel = SNMP_SEC_LEVEL_AUTHNOPRIV;

    /* set the authentication method to MD5 */
    session.securityAuthProto = usmHMACMD5AuthProtocol;
    session.securityAuthProtoLen = sizeof(usmHMACMD5AuthProtocol)/sizeof(oid);
    session.securityAuthKeyLen = USM_AUTH_KU_LEN;

    /* set the authentication key to a MD5 hashed version of our
      passphrase (which must be at least 8
      characters long) */
    if(generate_Ku(
            session.securityAuthProto,
            session.securityAuthProtoLen,
            (u_char *) our_v3_passphrase, strlen(our_v3_passphrase),
            session.securityAuthKey,
            &session.securityAuthKeyLen) != SNMPERR_SUCCESS)
    {
        qDebug() << "Error generating Ku from authentication pass phrase.";
    }
}

Thanks for the help!

Specifying the include path is not enough. You need to link against the library, naturally, otherwise all the symbols will be unresolved for the linker. Try 

win32 {
    INCLUDEPATH += "C:\snmp_5.7.0\include"
    LIBS+= -L"C:\snmp_5.7.0\lib" -lnetsnmp
}

or something similar. You can even specify the absolute path to the library should it be located elsewhere than beside the application. Check how exactly the library is called.
