I can compile C code no problem using MinGW but for some reason I can't compile C++. I already tried other compilers, cygnus and cygwin. I'm using JGrasp. Here's the error feed: 

 ----jGRASP wedge2 error: command "g++" not found.
 ----   This command must be in the current working directory
 ----   or on the current PATH to use this function.
 ----   PATH is ";C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;
                 C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live

You also can use mingw-get commandline installer: mingw-get install g++

It can be useful to execute mingw-get update before.
