Hi,
If you’re running NB 12.6, on a Mac, try its default C++ pull-down menu found 
in ‘Preferences’.
Have Homebrew repo install either CCLS or ClangD LSP client and configure C++ 
Project next.
To compile your code, goto ‘Project Properties - Build'
Pick and choose compiler toggles from the following article:
https://bytes.usc.edu/cs104/wiki/gcc/ <https://bytes.usc.edu/cs104/wiki/gcc/>

I find Editor compile command toggles and Build ‘clean’  and ‘run’ config 
academic, since I’m learning C++ from CLI. 

You should find the NB 12.6 Debugger useful in troubleshooting.
