I installed NetBeans with JDK 8 for Java but I am having problems coding in C and C++. I installed the plugin to code in C and C++ but I cannot find the tool collections needed to run C and C++ programs on my computer. I have MinGW on my computer somewhere. Where can I find the MinGW tools on my computer and how can I apply MinGW to NetBeans for C and C++ coding?
 
I fixed my problem with NetBeans. I installed CodeBlocks with the MinGW components but in doing so I did not actually install a copy of MinGW that I could use elsewhere, such as with NetBeans, so I downloaded the MinGW components myself and NetBeans automatically found them and applied the components for use and now I can run C and C++ programs with NetBeans.
 
To install MinGW on my computer for use in NetBeans I downloaded the MinGW Installer and I selected Basic Setup and downloaded the MinGW developer toolkit, MinGW 32 base installation, and the GNU C++ compiler.
 
Two other popular IDEs for coding in C and C++ are Eclipse and CodeBlocks. MinGW and Cygwin both work with those IDEs.
