what u need is
editor/compiler

i strongly recommend emacs/xemacs
or vi if you are serious about programming
even though these two'll take you 3-6 month to get used to
i personally use xemacs and won't give up for any other editors

kdevelop is C/C++ IDE (Integrated Development Enviroment)
that has buttons for compiling/running/debugging your program and such

open up editor of your choice and copy hello world program on the web or book

save the file

g++ -o myprogram thefilename.cc

./myprogram

i didnt get.
I just want to know the languages and editors used to develop
GUI application with database support too.

There isn't much support for that kind of thing yet, but check out GTKmm, GNOMEmm, GNOME-DB and Glade (which has support for database aware widgets if you compile it properly).
