Assuming that we are on up-to-date Windows x64 installation:

Install software

...

1. Install Java JDK (not JRE): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
2. Set JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to the JDK installation directory (something like "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_111")
3. Download and unzip Apache Maven to some folder: https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi
4. Add Maven bin folder to PATH environment variable (example: "c:\Programs\Maven\apache-maven-3.3.9\bin\")

Build Java sources

In root source folder execute "mvn clean package -DskipTests" command.

When doing pure .NET development, you only need to run this every time you update your branch from master.

Build .NET sources

• Switch to x64 platform (you don't need AnyCPU for development - it is slower to build and requires x86 JDK installation)
• Build solution

Upgrading C++ compilers and libraries causes two vcxproj files to be modified,
