Most people are using Xcode these days.
It's free. And pretty damn good too.
So what do you guys use for developing in C++ on the Mac? Code Warrior? Are there any other alternatives worth knowing about?

XCode that comes free with OS X, and is freely available from Apple's site, supports development in C, C++, Objective C, Objective C++ and Java. I haven't done any C++ with it, but I have played around with the Cocoa framework and Objective C. My opinion is that CodeWarrior is a slightly better tool, but not better enough to overcome the price difference.

Interesting ... it didn't even occur to me to look into XCode. Will do!
Don't write off Codewarrior too quickly. It may cost a bit, (if you know a student, they can buy it super cheap), but it offers some terrific cross-platform support! That alone might make it worth the up-front cost.
How much of an improvement is it over 10.2's Project Builder? I didn't really like Project Builder much.Originally Posted by gmcbay
CodeWarrior is a fine tool -- I use CodeWarrior for Palm for my PalmOS/Zodiac port. But Xcode is free and more than good enough, IMO.
As far as the other question goes.. I'm not sure. Like EpicBoy I'm fairly new to the Mac world, and 10.3 is the first version of the OS I've used.
