I am not able to complile c code in netbeans I am getting the following error.
Cannot run program "C:\cygwin64\bin\makeinfo" (in directory "C:\Users\prjwl\Documents\NetBeansProjects\Hearts"): CreateProcess error=5, Access is denied
I have followed netbeans intallation guidelines and cygwin seems to be working from the command line.
I have also checked for missing dll's and checked settings in Tools->options->c++ to see if the build tools are set properly
If anyone knows what exactly am I doing wrong, Help me
makeinfo
is not part of your C compilation process, it is a documentation generator, used usually in conjunction with GNU autools.
You should be able to install it by installing the texinfo
Cygwin package.
Note that makeinfo
is NOT make
, by far. If you need make
, install that Cygwin package as well, and set "Make Command" to C:\cygwin64\bin\make.exe
(in your case).
