If you are writing strictly for OS X then you can use the Cocoa Frameworks
that Apple supplies with Xcode. You will have to use Xcode 4 to design you
GUIs and bridge the Objective-C to C++ with Objective-C++.
If you are going to compile your code for other platforms then you will
want to use one of the cross platform toolkits such as Qt, wxWidgets or
something along those lines which are typically C++ frameworks.
I personally use Qt on OS X with Eclipse everyday. In addition I use CMake
as the build system. There is some setup to go through but the end result is
a very nice IDE to work in.
