Need help with postgresql build on windows

Hello,

I have started exploring Postgresql recently.
I am trying to build Postgresql from source on a windows machine. I am
referring to the page
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/install-meson.html#INSTALL-SHORT-MESON

The ninja command is failing with the error message:

PS C:\PostgreSQLworkspace\postgres\build> ninja

PS C:\PostgreSQLworkspace\postgres\build>

I have enabled full permission on the folder but still no luck.

Can someone please help me with this? Any troubleshooting pointers would be
a great help!

Thanks in advance!

Thanks and Regards,
Prafulla
