You really don't have any options. :-) Get a developer account
with Apple (it's free for the basics, $99 a year for stuff that
you probably don't need starting out) and download and use Xcode.
For most of your production work you'll be using the default gcc
compiler set, and it's fine. (I believe that apart from being
the factory default, gcc-4.2 is the currently supported and
recommended compiler according to the mothership.)
Clang is promising, but its C++ support isn't far enough along
to be usable (although hope springs eternal).
Good luck,
R.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they
