C/C++ configure of Netbeans

Question

I can't seem to configure NetBeans correctly using MinGW. I did everything according to instructions, I added the paths in Variables. But somehow I still can't get it to work.

I tried to compile my sample program and this is the outpit:

C:\MinGW\bin\msgcomm.exe: error while opening "MKDIR=mkdir" for reading: No such file or directory


BUILD FAILED (exit value 1, total time: 53ms)

Thanks for help in advance.

Answer 1

Given that error, it appears you need the build environment, not just a compiler. For example, you can use MSYS to provide the build tools NetBeans/MingW might be expecting.
