It depends on the operating system you want to use. On MS-Windows you need a c and/or c++ compiler, such as free Code::Blocks with MinGW compiler or VC++ 2010 Express. On *nix you can use free gcc or g++ compilers.
You can create/compile programs for other operating systems by using a compiler called "cross compiler".
