linking problem: fatal error LNK1112: module machine type ‘x64’ conflicts with target machine type ‘X86’

I try to compile a project, let say Project_A, for x64 and receive an LNK1112 error like this 

.\x64\Debug\Project_B.obj : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'x64' conflicts with target machine type 'X86'

Project_A depends on Project_B and uses its interfaces etc. My question is what of both projects is here the module machine and what the target machine? I am totally confused, because Project_B.obj in both output dirs are almost same. And compiling only Project_B succeeds. Any ideas?

It seems you are compiling your project for x64 and your project does use a library which target machine is x86. If you want your project compile for x64 machines, try reconfigure the library for x64 instead of x64. Otherwise, compile your project for x86.
