I can't change programming language in my project. I should use C++

You can learn Qt with c++. It provides qtcreator as IDE along with documentation. Begin with Tutorial in documentation.

In general, you should learn GTK to create widgets. But projects like wxWidgets simplified this and abstracted the GTK code to provide a better C++ API.

Hi! You can use Qt for graphics programming with C++ in Linux. Regards!

To start program with Qt, You can use 2 free IDEs: CodeBlocks and CodeLite; Both of them work on Linux, and provide the startup creator for Qt4; I have tested CodeBlocks 10.04 and codeLite 2.10 under Debian 6.0.2 and Scientific Linux 6.1; CodeLite 3.0 didn't work due to the lack of wxWidgets 2.9, but with wxWidets 2.8 everything worked well on 32 bit Linux-es. Under 64-bit Debian 6.0.2 worked CodeBlocks, but CodeLite had some bug when tried to read integers with cin under Console application mode. Rgds!

You can try to use the Qt Creator provided by Qt itself. It integrates a decent C++ editor, several wizards for startup plus it integrates the Qt API documentation. I can definitely recommend it: we used it for working on a multi-platform Qt project and it worked like a charm. Best regards
