<p>You might need to use the <tt>cygpath</tt> command to set those
environment variables. I finally got builds working well on
Windows with the <a href="https://github.com/jgneff/jfxbuild/blob/main/win10/bin/jfxbuild.env" target="_blank">following
script</a> for setting up the environment variables in Cygwin:</p>
<hr width="100%" size="2">
<pre>#!/bin/bash
# Sets up the environment for building JavaFX
# Path must include 'C:\Windows\System32'
syspath=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32
# Visual Studio Build Tools 2022
export VS150COMNTOOLS="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\2022\\BuildTools\\VC\\Auxiliary\\Build"
cmake=$HOME/opt/cmake-3.26.4-windows-x86_64
