netbeans

I have recently downloaded netbeans 8.1 for my 64bit computer, I plan to use it for c/c++ projects. I also downloaded cygwin64 tool for compilation.

I followed every step for the tutorial and changed the env variable path to the bin of cygwin, however, my Netbeans cannot recognize standard directories like stdio.h etc

My build is failing and I am getting this error,

C:\cygwin64\lib\gawk\filefuncs.dll -f Makefile CONF=Debug
Cannot run program "C:\cygwin64\lib\gawk\filefuncs.dll" (in directory "C:\Users\n201tu\Documents\NetBeansProjects\MyShell"): CreateProcess error=193, %1 is not a valid Win32 application

BUILD FAILED (exit value -2, total time: 93ms)

Please let me know what am I doing wrong, below is what I have tried.

What I have tried:

I have already changed the path of the enviroment variable, I have included directory in the properties at a tool level for cygwin/lib (I am not sure if this is correct)

I tried to get a make for execution and randomly selected a file, I think this is where I am going wrong. I think I cant get the 'make' property right.
