The *.pch file is of no use outside the project that created it. Its only purpose it to speed up the compile process of a project.

What you have to do is add the *.lib file to the project. There are two ways to do it:
1) Put this in one of the *.c or *.cpp files: #pragma comment(lib,"xmlparser.lib") or
2) Select menu Project --> Properties --> Congiguration Properties -->
linker --> Input. On the rightside of the screen add xmlparser.lib to the "Additional Dependencies" edit control
