Description

1. Using MSYS2 MinGW_w64 64-bit toolchain. 
2. Open attached project "PPP2ED.zip" in NetBeans.
3. After project is parsed, notice Graph.h shows no error hints.
4. Copy the "FLTK" directory inside project directory outside of project directory one level.
5. In the Project Properties, change the C++ Compiler >> Include directory to reflect new location (i.e. ../FLTK/include ) and save.
6. Wait for project to parse.
7. Right click on project and go to Code Assistant >> Reparse Project.
8. See Graph.h again and notice "Unable to resolve" hints on lines 19-23, 42-46, 62-77.

Expected: The identifiers are resolved. 

Workaround: Use FLTK directory inside of project folder.
