CMake does not find compiler with C++11 support

I am trying to install the FANN library for use in a project. I am using this as my guide but when I run cmake ., I receive this: 

`$ cmake .
-- FANN is used as APPLICATION_NAME
-- Try OpenMP CXX flag = [-fopenmp]
-- Performing Test OpenMP_FLAG_DETECTED
-- Performing Test OpenMP_FLAG_DETECTED - Success
-- Could NOT find OpenMP (missing:  OpenMP_CXX_FLAGS) 
-- The compiler /usr/bin/c++ has no C++0x, C++11 or C++14 support. FANN will still work with no problem, but the tests will not be able to compile.
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /home/marvin/fann`

even if I have gcc/g++ 4.9 installed. Looking at the instructions from Git hub, the output when running cmake . should be something like this:

`-- The C compiler identification is GNU 4.8.1
-- The CXX compiler identification is GNU 4.8.1
-- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/cc

any help?

Even though you have gcc-4.9 installed it's probably not in the standard location, or you have your environment variable CXX pointing to /usr/bin/c++ which is another compiler.

Try running cmake -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER /path/to/your/g++-4.9/binary" ..
