openmpi libraries for c++

Question

I am using an ubuntu 10.04 system and I installed mpi libraries using

sudo apt-get install openmpi-bin openmpi-doc libopenmpi-dev

I am able to compile and run pure c-mpi code using the commands mpicc and mpirun but I am not able to compile cpp-mpi code using mpicc

Do I need to install any additional libraries to compile cpp code ?

Answer 1

more googling gave me the answer

I had to use mpicxx to compile and run the code
