Check out my Gist link.
You will need NB v21. Therefore, you will have */two/* versions
installed. One for C/C++, and one for Java.

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:
https://gist.github.com/bewillcott/ddb8a4d6d08b4d9070daa1bc4399f7e6
I hope this comes though properly.
Brad.
