Error in Visual Studio 2015 which goes away in 2012

[Chintan_M_]

I am running the following code on my Windows10 machine with API version 1.19

#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?

Someone had the answer for this on Stackoverflow http://stackoverflow.com/a/41915382/6910540 . As explained in the answer given on StackOverFLow, the API version 1.19 doesn't support Visual Studio 2015.
