16.01 installed on Xubuntu 16.04 LTS having difficulty setting path

Hello

I installed SoloLearn Learn C++ for Android on my phone.
Getting the Tools section introduced me to Code::Blocks
So, I have installed Code::Blocks 16.01 in Xubuntu 16.04 LTS on a Toshiba NB550D notebook
Trying the Hello World sample code, when I click on the Build & run icon

--- Code: ----------------- Build: Debug in SoloLearn (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler)---------------

g++ -Wall -fexceptions -g -Wall -std=c++11  -c /home/hughes/CodeBlocks/SoloLearn/main.cpp -o obj/Debug/main.o
/bin/sh: 1: g++: not found
Process terminated with status 127 (0 minute(s), 0 second(s))
0 error(s), 0 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s))
 

--- End code ---
Settings > Compiler > Global compiler settings > Toolchain executables > Auto-Detect
/usr
C++ compiler : g++
Linker for dynamic libs : g++

Could someone please help me set the path correctly?

Jenna:
Install the g++-compiler.

boxcorner:
Thank you.

Here's what I did

--- Code: ---sudo apt-get install build-essential
--- End code ---
Now it works.

When I hover the mouse pointer over the Build and run icon, the  text is barely legible, as it's white on a pale grey background. How do I change the tool-tip text colour, please?

This is a setting provided by your OS. C::B uses wxWidgets for the GUI, and wxWidgets uses the system default colors for the GUI elements. So you should see this behavior (color scheme) on all your applications...

greetings

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. Version 16.04 LTS of my OS (ie Xubuntu) is new to me. I have been using version 14.04 LTS on a Lenovo laptop. i had to de-select a lot of things in 16.04 LTS to get it running reasonably on this little Toshiba notebook, so I very likely messed up. I shall enjoy using Code::Blocks. Thank you!
