Answer 1

which compiler to choose from the list?

None, XP support ended with Qt 5.5 5.6 (LTS)
https://wiki.qt.io/PlatformSupport
5.12 -> https://doc.qt.io/QT-5/supported-platforms.html
5.6 -> Windows XP (32-bit) Deployment only https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.6/supported-platfo...
remains 5.5
how to assemble / make it work - you can google it, but it's different for everyone, it depends on the environment.

Answer 2

On the first question:
You can try to put the 32-bit assembly "Desktop Qt 5.12.1 MSVC2017 32bit". And on Windows XP, install Microsoft Visual C ++ Runtime 2017 .
On the second question:
In the *.pro project file, you must specify the path to the external library:
LIBS += -L "path/to/library/directory"
