First VS Core, now VS proper. Impressive!

A properly configured and well-curated collection of packages will yield an exceptional experience using emacs - if you're into that kind of thing. Add in some custom elisp and you're well on your way to a fully customizable development environment.

CLion is pretty spiffy IMO, though it uses CMake as the underlying build tool which may or may-not be your thing (I prefer scons.. but nothing's perfect).

KDevelop is also a very good C++ IDE for Linux.

It is quite good, as it is the basis of Solaris IDE, just some features are missing.
