C++ for Mac

[dembeno]

Hi all,

This might be very silly questions, but to me, your inputs will def help me kick this off.

I am a mac user and wondering how I can get the c++ installer for Mac. Secondly, I have eclipse for Java installed, can I use the same eclipse to code c++ or do I have to install different eclipse for c++? In addition, on my mac I have got xcode too, a friend of mine once said I could use it as well <-- do you think so?

Thanks in advance,
dembeno

For C++ all you Need is an Editor, it could be a nice one like xcode etc. and a Compiler to Compiler you code to get Output file. I guess mac has builtin c++ Compiler as each unix/Linux System must have a Compiler.

Use Xcode. Create a new project of type "Command line tool". Choose C++ as your preferred programming language.
