Thank you.
One note, I have NB 25, and in NB 25 there is no "Netbeans 8.2 Plugin
Portal". There is an C/C++ plugin. That could be why when I select a new
C/C++ project all I get is: "Lightweight C/C++ Project". And the rest of
your description, then, does not apply.
When I eventually did establish a C/C++ environment (thanks to all of
you), and did link it to (Cygwin)clangd, and did begin to edit a file, I
also did notice that no syntax checking was done. Now this was sporadic.
Sometimes there was syntax checking, sometimes there wasn't. I have two
systems (a laptop and a worktop) and they are not identical. It could be
that in one system I use a Cygwin clangd and in the other I use a
Windows clangd. But I'm tired of trying to trace down and fixe errors
done because of my lack of knowledge.
Now I know that all of the issues found were do to my lack of knowledge,
and perhaps, proficiency. I know this. And I am absolutely certain that
in time I will have (with all of your help) found answers to my issues,
gained considerable knowledge, and if I feel sufficiently versed, will
have submitted a help file to NB for review and distribution . I know
that. But I just don't want to spend another month or two getting to
that point, and in the process, delaying my ongoing efforts.
I have found it so difficult to establish a C/C++ environment that I've
decided to use Eclipse for my work. This is regretful. I have used NB
for a couple of decades (?) and really, really like it. But I've got to
get some work done, and Eclipse has tutorials, guides, and manuals to
help me understand it and resolve issues.
Please, when (after what, 12 years) NB establishes a working and
documented environment for C/C++ send me a notification so that I can
use it again.
Thanks.

Hi there.
I have been doing some investigating into this issue: "A lack of C/C++
support in Netbeans".
As the process includes a lot of screenshots, I have created a GitHub
Gist:

I hope this comes though properly.
Brad.
