The best IDE i was able to find for C++ on linux is Qt Creator. Its only drawback is that it's quite Qt integrated, but with very few tweaks you can make regular C++ projects with no Qt dependencies.

Everything from the debugger to the code completion does work well, which is more you can say about most C++ IDE on linux.



The current Qt Creator (or I think its beta version) really has the best available C++ syntax support (which has direct impact on stuff like auto completion) I have ever seen so far.

The second best I have seen was in KDevelop (when configured correctly -- I remember it only worked correctly when you pre parsed the STL library).

I am also very excited about the clang development. It was developed in a way that it should be very easy to integrate it (or parts of it) in an IDE. Xcode4 will do that. And others probably will follow at some point.
