Leopard Reference: Carbon
A full suite of free developer tools is available to Mac OS X developers, who can speed up their development process by using these tools to prototype, compile, debug, and optimize their software products. Xcode, Apple's integrated development environment, supports development in C and C++ and provides templates for creating Carbon applications, frameworks, plug-ins and more. Apple also provides a wide selection of open source tools, such as GCC, which is used to compile in Mach-O, the native runtime environment of Mac OS X.
