Getting C Compiler for NetBeans

Hey I recently changed to using Netbeans because I will be learning how to program in many languages.

So far, I managed to put Ruby and Java onto Netbeans. However, I want to put C/C++ into Netbeans and it's just not working well.

Now, I found Missing Native Build Tools. I correctly linked my Base Directory to

Code:

---

C:\Dev-Cpp\bin

---

and the necessary slots for C compiler/C++ compiler are filled correctly. But when I click okay it says

Code:

---

! was unexpected at this time.
C:\Dev-cpp\bin\make.exe: *** [.validate-impl] Error 255
BUILD FAILED (exit value 2, total time: 237 ms0

---

What does this mean and how do I fix it so Netbeans can compile my code?

I think you got the wrong forum buddy. This is C programming not NetBeans Troubleshooting.

but it has to do with C compiler? haha that was my logic :P

I suggest that you follow the instructions given concerning the use of MinGW as described in Introducing Netbeans C/C++ Pack.
