Description luky 2007-11-15 10:32:33 UTC 
NB RC1
After adding path to cygwin binaries in C/C++ option dialog the setting are not stored. After restart of netbeans I 
have to (I am asked to) set the path again

This issue is a duplicate of 116800. For now it's a default behavior to get Current Path from the PATH environment
variable. So the workaround is to add path to cygwin/bin into PATH. If you consider that the bug is important then
please vote for the issue #116800

Small comment from me. IDE ignores 'Current Path' table when you run executable file(see issue #103016) ==> You cann't
run any cygwin applications.

Steps:
- Delete cygwin from Path environment variable
- Run Netbeans
- Add 'C:/cygwin_dir/bin' into 'Current Path' table
- Create Quote project
- Build project
- Run project
==> "Windows cannnot find 'sh'" warning appears.

P.S. It doesn't matter We cannot run cygwin application on windows without Cygwin in Path variable.
