Cmake responded in "-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!"

Question

I was installing miraclecast following the instructions. I got stuck in step 3 in the documentation. I did some google search and found out this step by step guide. I then followed it but got stuck again with CMake saying this:

-- The CXX compiler identification is unknown
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (project):
  No CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER could be found.

  Tell CMake where to find the compiler by setting either the environment
  variable "CXX" or the CMake cache entry CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER to the full path
  to the compiler, or to the compiler name if it is in the PATH.


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/home/user/miraclecast/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "/home/user/miraclecast/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".

And I don't know how to do now. The error is mostly about "no such file or dictionary". Can anyone help me? If you can, please provide detailed instructions because I am very new to Linux and don't actually know most of the terms. If I could just copy the terminal lines, that would be great. My system is Linux mint cinnamon 19.3 with cinnamon version 4.4.8. Notify me if more info required. Thanks for the help. P.S. I am also very new to cmake and just followed the guide step by step and dont actually know what things is missing and how to solve it.

So how do I solve the problem? What should I install and how? — SodaWithoutSparkles, Feb 17 '20 at 15:34
Linux distros usually use `gcc` as a C compiler(and `g++` as a C++ compiler). Search the package named `g++` in your distro, and install that package. If you don't know how to search or install a package, then just google. — Tsyvarev, Feb 17 '20 at 15:48
