I'm trying to create a project using the QGIS class "QApplication" but it seems to fail due to an error I can´t understand.
I'm using this build version of QGIS made for QT5.7, VS2015, W10 x64 and my main.cpp just containts the following lines:
#define CORE_EXPORT __declspec(dllexport)
#include "QGisTest.h"
#include <QtWidgets/QApplication>
#include <qgsapplication.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QGisTest w;
w.show();
return a.exec();
}
And when I try to build it, these errors show up:

I also added to the project this "moc_qgsapplication.cpp" and wrote the line:
#define CORE_EXPORT __declspec(dllexport)
to avoid other compilation problems and linked to the project the QGIS and QT 5.7 libs.
Any idea how to fix it?
EDIT:
I have changed the two lines of main.cpp as suggested and now contains the following code:
#define CORE_EXPORT __declspec(dllimport)
#include "QGisTest.h"
#include <QApplication>
#include <qgsapplication.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QGisTest w;
w.show();
return a.exec();
}
but when I try to build it, these erros still show up:
