ARM64 compilation issue from Developer command prompt in VS2015 and VS2017

[GHANASHYAM SATPATHY]

While configuring for ARM64 from "Visual studio 2015"->"Developer Command Prompt for VS2015" using "vcvarsall.bat amd64_arm64" gives following error. Same error comes for VS 2017 also. However configuring for amd64_arm works and build also comes in ARM configuration. As per following MSDN docs amd64_arm64 is a valid target to be used, wondering why not working then.

Build C/C++ Code on the Command Line

An early reply is highly appreciated.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC>vcvarsall.bat amd64_arm64
Error in script usage. The correct usage is:
vcvarsall.bat [option]
or
vcvarsall.bat [option] store
or
vcvarsall.bat [option] [version number]
or
vcvarsall.bat [option] store [version number]
where [option] is: x86 | amd64 | arm | x86_amd64 | x86_arm | amd64_x86 | amd64_arm
where [version number] is either the full Windows 10 SDK version number or "8.1" to use the windows 8.1 SDK
:
The store parameter sets environment variables to support
store (rather than desktop) development.
:
For example:
vcvarsall.bat x86_amd64
vcvarsall.bat x86_arm store
vcvarsall.bat x86_amd64 10.0.10240.0
vcvarsall.bat x86_arm store 10.0.10240.0
vcvarsall.bat x64 8.1
vcvarsall.bat x64 store 8.1
:
Please make sure either Visual Studio or C++ Build SKU is installed.

Thanks
