Possible to compile GUI in Unix?

Hi, I am creating a GUI using borland c++, but my target running platform is
Unix. Apart from using clx components, what else do I have to do (esp to the
Makefile) in order to have my project running in Unix? The compiler I use in
Unix is g++.
I really new to borland C++, and if really can't do this in Unix then I may
have to switch to using Java...Pls help!!!

Borland does not support Unix. Linux, not Unix. Different platforms.

Java is not necessary for a GUI on Unix. (Which flavor, anyway?)
If you're using Linux, CLX is an option. There are other portable GUI
frameworks as well, like wxWindows, Qt, and so on.

CLX uses Qt internally.

CLX uses Qt internally.
Right, and if you're using Linux, CLX is an option.
If you're using Unix, then CLX isn't available... and you have to
consider other more portable libraries. (Since the OP mentioned Unix
instead of Linux, it made sense to suggest libraries that are likely
to compile on that platform.)
