hello guys
I am trying to run a simple c project in netbeans with the MinGW compiler
but when I try to build the project I get an error

Missing native build tools: Make Command is missing

I think I installed the MinGW correctly and I added it to the system PATH

so the netbeans can see the MinGW and include the header files but it can't see the make command tool

Does your PATH variable also include the path to the directory containing Make?

thank you for the answer
no it contains only MinGW path
anyway
I see that make.exe is also contained in the path MinGW\bin
so I added it to the path in netbeans but I am getting this error after building my project:

"'test' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
The syntax of the command is incorrect.
! was unexpected at this time.
make: *** [.validate-impl] Error 255"

what is that mean!!!

Is "test" the name of your project? ....if so, you may have this[^] problem...
