I think you can use tcl/tk libraries to create gui programming for C++. These are pretty standard and available for all platforms, though it usually comes in many Linux distros but needs to be downloaded for Windows platform...

For Windows only programming, you can use VC++ (there is an Express Edition which is available for free)

I love wxWidget -> very quick to learn and awesome forum support, and a lot of (rather I should say plenty of) handy features by native and the community.

anyone who can suggest best QT4 development IDE. There are quite a few I know of which are available on Ubuntu repos. I'd like to know what some of you have been using (or tried) and which one is the best one.
