Hopefully this is the right place. Don't shoot me if it isn't, please.
I'm trying to build the JDK from Windows 10. I got so far as to
configure failing on finding what it needs from the Visual Code Studio
install via command line:
configure: Found Visual Studio installation at /cygdrive/c/Program Files
(x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2019/Community using well-known name
configure: Warning: None of vc/bin/amd64/vcvars64.bat
vc/bin/x86_amd64/vcvarsx86_amd64.bat
VC/Auxiliary/Build/vcvarsx86_amd64.bat VC/Auxiliary/Build/vcvars64.bat
were found, Visual Studio installation not recognized. Ignoring
configure: Found Visual Studio installation at /cygdrive/c/Program Files

VC/Auxiliary/Build/vcvarsx86_amd64.bat VC/Auxiliary/Build/vcvars64.bat
were found, Visual Studio installation not recognized. Ignoring
configure: Cannot locate a valid Visual Studio installation, checking
current environment
checking for Visual Studio variables... not found
configure: Cannot locate a valid Visual Studio or Windows SDK
installation on disk,
configure: nor is this script run from a Visual Studio command prompt.
configure: Try setting --with-tools-dir to the VC/bin directory within
the VS installation
However there is no "bin" directory in this installation, at least not
one that contains any of the specified files. This is Visual Code 2019
Community, but I've tried the Professional version too. The building
document doesn't specify which version, nor does it tell me how to fix this.
How do I get this to work via command line?
