Error message in Eclipse: "Program "make" not found in PATH" (C++) -

i've been getting error "program "make" not found in path" in eclipse (for c++). searched computer make.exe , nil appeared. not find folder cygwin, saw several people have mentioned when answering similar questions. there should have downloaded reason there not beingness make.exe on computer?

you don't need cygwin, unless want total posix development environment , compile programs require posix runtime support.

you can gnu create installing msys or building yourself; code available http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/ , contains readme.w32 file describing how compile source on windows.

by way, should create clear in questions you're talking windows platforms (and utilize windows tag).

c++ eclipse path make
