Hello Ty,
Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 or 2017, any edition, should work. My
best guess is that you skipped installing the necessary parts of it.
Run the installer again, click "Modify" and make sure you have
"Desktop development with C++" ticked in.
That worked, thanks!
It still didn't configure though. Now it's complaining about not having
clang installed. Once I installed clang and clang-devel, it then
complained about not having version 9 installed. The latest version from
cygdrive was 8<something>, 9 is not an option. If I try to trick it by
copying and renaming the older 8<something> version, it then complains
about Index.h being found but not being compileable and to report it here.
Any advice here? I tried installing more extra stuff from Visual Code
Studio to see if it'd help, but it doesn't or I'm not installing the
right things.

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: Try setting --with-tools-dir to the VC/bin directory

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?
