Build tips

I had an issue building with VS 2017 which was related to the location of the lib.exe program on Windows. The location is defined in DllExport\NppPlugin.DllExport.targets.

I had to find it within my VS installation directory and the diff from VS 2015 to VS 2017 is below.

-                   LibToolPath="$(DevEnvDir)\..\..\VC\bin"
-                   LibToolDllPath="$(DevEnvDir)"
+                   LibToolPath="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.10.25017\bin\HostX86\x86"
+                   LibToolDllPath="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.10.25017\bin\HostX86\x86"
