Eclipse

Eclipse has become one of the most popular IDEs not only for Java.
The C++ relevant tool plugin (CDT) work very well. Eclipse is written in Java, which means it takes a while to start up and consumes a signifant amount of RAM. Apart from this little flaw, it is an excellent tool for your C++ project. Eclipse can be used to organise your Project files (managed make). I personally write my own makefiles, which Eclipse then uses without asking. The biggest benefit, is the keyword completion functionality similar to the IntelliSense feature in Microsoft Products.

I had some strange problems, when I wanted to use the Motif Version of Eclipse/CDT, but GTK workes very well, so I use this one.
