John, why is icucore target (and other icu targets), have <link>shared in requirements? There's a number of ways to fix the direct issue above, but I need to know what was the original intention.

Ah, good point: the libraries that ICU supply are DLL's, you can't use them with the static msvc runtime as far as I know unless the OP has done a custom build of ICU?

That's the point. I don't remember exactly what I have done during the process of installing ICU. But one thing clear is that I haven't modified the solution configuration that comes with the original package.

And do you have static libs for ICU? If not, then per John statement above, you cannot use ICU with static runtime. - Volodya
