There were some changes to how the executable links work in recent versions of Cygwin. The latest version of jGRASP should handle those, so you probably need to upgrade. Then you won't need a custom compiler environment as your instructor suggests, just go back to the default.

Also, make sure you actually have the g++ compiler installed with Cygwin (install "All" with Cygwin if you have the space).

If that doesn't help, turn on "Settings" / "Verbose Messages" and send a bug report using "Help" / "Report a Bug" that includes all of the output from a failed compile.
