ESDK v er1.5.x for ERT In Cloud - Cpp/C build compilation error - Linker Errors

Working on compiling the latest ESDK - Cpp/C example for Ema, to connect to ERT in cloud.

Generated VS project files by running cmake, and now trying to generate a build from within VS2017

Copied the relevant static library files from:

C:\data\ertCloud\sdk\win\Elektron-SDK-1.5.0.L1.win\setup\Elektron-SDK-1.5.0.L1.win.rrg\Cpp-C\Ema\Libs\WIN_64_VS150\Release_MD\*.*

To:

C:\data\ertCloud\sdk\win\Elektron-SDK-1.5.0.L1.win\setup\Elektron-SDK-1.5.0.L1.win.rrg\Cpp-C\Ema\Libs\WIN_64_VS150

Project environment settings includes the latest path above. Getting link errors in VS 2017, for eample:

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State

etc...

Any guidance on how to resolve this error will be much appreciated.
