Description

### Description

My understanding was C++ support was withdrawn a few years ago. However, recently I think this changed.... something about CCLS? Unfortunately I haven't been able to find out what exactly needs to be done to setup. There's a lot of confusion on the small handful of Stackoverflow posts.

### Use case/motivation

Could someone please add documentation clarifying what needs to be done to get C++ and Netbeans working on Linux?
