The language does not change on different platforms. What are you trying to do? Compile your program using g++ w/ a Makefile on linux. http://www.cs.wm.edu/cspages/computing/tutorial/gpp.html - g++ tutorial.

Yes windows specific libraries and windows system calls will obviously not work on Linux. They are also not part of the C++ standard. If you want to make a GUI in Linux, you have to find the appropriate library and go from there. I don't really know much of anything about GUIs so I can't really help there. However, One of my friends really likes qt, which is available on many platfroms. I think there is a free student version you could try out.
