Yes, CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH is recognised by GridFlow.

LIBRARY_PATH is parallel to C_INCLUDE_PATH and CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH, but 
instead of putting the "include" folders in it, you put the "lib" folders.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH is normally exactly the same. It is used when running 
programs, whereas LIBRARY_PATH is used for compiling programs. When 
you compile programs for your own computer and have only one OS, then 
those two variables should have the exact same content.
