I am asking this here because I think my last question was more than one question so creating another question seemed appropriate. However, you can close it if it does not adhere to the SO policies.

In this comment on my last question , I was given a nice advice by Michael Aaron Safyan (at least I liked it):

Once you feel somewhat comfortable in the language, then I would recommend taking a look at Google Code and seeing if there are any C++ projects that are in need of some help.

I am going to be developing on XCode on Mac. My question is that do I have to take that into consideration when developing for C++ projects. Is environment consideration project based or can a generic OS/Env be used like Mac/Xcode or Ubuntu/Anjuta?

Thanks.

    When it comes to C++ development there are two major camps: MSVC, and gcc. Porting a project between them is not always easy, so since Xcode is gcc-based as long as you stick to gcc projects (typical filenames to look for are configure and Makefile) you should not have a problem.
