I'm not sure if I have understood properly your question, but I will try to 
answer anyway.

KDevelop is just an IDE. This means is a front end for gcc (the compiler), 
make, and other tools needed for helping while you are programing. You can 
make programs just with a text editor, and typing at the command line "gcc -c 
main.c -o myprogram", but there are other tools that help you when this is 
not enogh, like KDevelop.

If you code standard C/C++ using gcc as a compiler, don't worry, it will 
compile under DOS or Windows. If I recall correctly, you can also create DOS 
executables with gcc, so you can send .exe programs to your teacher, and 
he/she will not notice it.

The problem is if you want to use propietary and non-standard libraries, like 
Borland's "conio", which doesn't exist under linux.

Best regards.
