It is called 'c++' or 'g++'; the program 'gcc' or 'cc' will compile C++
code too ( for linking you will need to explicitly add c++ library to gcc ).
They should be in /usr/bin directory.

Did you installed pgcc-*.rpm packages and nesessary libraries?
You might want to upgrade your installation and choose items 'C development'
and 'C++ development'.
