These questions aren't really cygwin related, and are somewhat off topic 
for this list. Once you are finished reading the entire FAQ, users 
guide, and documentation at cygwin.com (and have searched the cygwin 
mailing list with google.com) I recommend going to

http://www.gnu.org/manual/manual.html

This website has manuals make and for the bash shell, which should help 
get you started on creating a .bashrc file. It probably has a manual for 
every cygwin utility.

I also recommend searching the internet (I prefer google.com) to find 
out how to write shell scripts. There is so much information on these 
questions that you are asking, it should take just a few minutes to find 
many useful webpages, and many hours to learn and put it to use.

If you have installed cygwin per the instructions at cygwin.com, make 
will "just work". But to "setup" the make utility to build for java, 
that will require some careful consideration- many java developers 
prefer ANT for java, because make has trouble with the nature of some 
java dependencies.

HTH,
Peter
