In the documentation two options are provided to compile Laslib in order to use it for 3dfier. The first option (autoconvert the VC6 .dsp-file to VS2017) introduces a lot of additional effort, since several dependencies of VC6 are not converted correctly. The second option (use CMake) works fine:
In the LASTOOLS folder
mkdir build
cd build
CMake -A x64 ..\
Creates a correct solution-file for VS2017. Is it maybe practical to leave option 1 out of the documentation?
