Is there dev cpp for mac?

I urgently need dev cpp for my Macbook. I need an exact equivalent of dev cpp available for Windows for college. I don't want to develop apps, I just have to get it for a course. I did some googleing but couldn't find anything useful.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)

Do you mean dev-c++?


If so you can write and compile c++ code in Xcode. Download it from the MAS. Once it is install you can also compile from the command line if that is what you need to do for your course.

Download Xcode from the Mac App Store (or Apples Developer site https://developer.apple.com/ - you may need to register a free developer account to access the download area).

Xcode contains compilers for C / C++ / Objective-C.

Note that you may needed to install command line tools (via Xcode -> Preferences) in certain (older ?) Xcode versions.


With this you should be able to call clang directly or use cc / cpp / gcc / c++ (which I think mostly just call clang in the end).
