No, I don't think so. I guess you memories it confused with CXXFLAGS :).

FYI:

CPPFLAGS (C PreProcessor Flags) are options for the C preprocessor,
which is the first stage of compilation where macro substitution occurs,
and conditional compilation directives are processed. These flags are often
used to specify additional include directories.
    e.g. CPPFLAGS="-I/some/include/path"

CFLAGS (C Compiler Flags) are options for the C compiler. These
flags are often used to specify various compiler settings, such as
optimization level, warnings level, and debugging information.
    e.g.  CFLAGS="-O2 -g -Wall"

CXXFLAGS (C++ Compiler Flags) are options for the C++ compiler.
It can be used to define options like optimization levels, debugging
information, warning levels, and more.
    e.g.  CXXFLAGS="-O2 -g -Wall"

Sure, thanks for doing this for me.
