Unable to build NetBeans C/C++ Project - c++

Question

I just can't build a C/C++ project in NetBeans. The environment variable is properly set.
Error :

The problem is that the "make" from msys looks for the msys mkdir but can't find it because you are not running in an msys environment.
The safe way to solve this is to launch NetBeans from the msys shell.
Alternatively you can manually create the directory as gcc/g++/... itself is also found on the path outside of an msys environment.
