Daes Mond updated NETBEANS-2189:
--------------------------------
Description:
Problem using MinGW-TDM compiler
"No shell found. Cannot proceed. Please install either CYGWIN or Msys."
A work around is to choose MinGW (The 32-bit compatible version being use by
netbeans previous versions), then rebuild the project, switch back to
MinGW-TDM-64 bit and rebuild the project. It will now work. Then when netbeans
10 restarted back to same old routine to be able to use TDM.

bug|http://topline2019.000webhostapp.com/nb10_mingw_tdm_bug_work_around_for_fix.mp4]
Finally I have found a way to create an alternate solution instead of just
adding the path of MSYS or CYGWIN in windows PATH environment variable. I have
modified
incubator-netbeans/ide/dlight.nativeexecution/src/org/netbeans/modules/nativeexecution/api/util/WindowsSupport.java
to add a property file config for MSYS/CYGWIN. It's located at
%USERPROFILE%\shell.properties (aka windows user.home). Just add
MSYS=/path/without/the/bin for MSYS
MSYS=C:\\msys2
usr
CYGWIN=C:\CYGWIN
Then I just modified the default message in Bundle.properties so it could
notify howto use the alternate solution
Ultimately the best solution is to modify the C/C++ Developers Pack plugin so
that user may have total control on how to configure the compilers and terminal
emulators. Like using different msys/mingw version and arch and diff cygwin
version also. As for my experience with just modifying PATH environment, it
may have undesired side effects on the user normal use of computer. Also
system("pause") will not work since msys/cygwin don't support it :P
