Given your post, I'm assuming Windows.
There's BloodShed Dev-C++ which has Mingw-GCC bundled but you can use another. [1]
Then there's Code::Blocks, which has a Mingw-GCC bundled version - [2]
One IDE that impressed me recently was CodeLite [3]. It doesn't come with a compiler, but its support for GCC is very good, especially gdb. You mention wxWidgets and IIRC it has built-in tools for that as well.

I didn't downvote you but I suspect you got downvoted because DevC++ is super stale. Their last release was pre-C++11 and likely more than a decade ago.
