      Yes, but depending on your need, you will probably need to use a specialized library for the UI. Native C++ is cross-platform, but there are a lot of things that are not cross-platform in addition to the basic C++ language (win32 API, MFC, ...). If you want to develop cross-platform code with a user interface, I suggest you take a look at wxWidgets[^].

        regarding the strict C++ programming language, nothing avoids you to code for MAC OS, Windows, Linux/Unix, Symbian or whatever else Operating System. The only constrain is the compiler. as long as you can find a compiler (of a Cross-Compiler) for the OS you want to target, then go for it

          Of course. BTW: Why don't you try Google to find out relavant info? For instance, a quick search gave me this page [^].

            i think you looked a bit too far. the question wasn't about making cross plateform programs, but only "is it possible to make a C++ program for MAC OS"... or it was badly asked :rolleyes: wxWidget is good though
