Sorry about being a bit tangential. Are you working on the project on your own? If so, then how did you choose C++? To me it almost seems like the wrong answer regardless of what the question was.

What are your prior programming experiences? E.g. if you know Scheme / Common Lisp you'll approach C++ very differently to someone who is coming from a Java/C# background which again is different for a C background.

If you are working with others, then you might want to ask them for their suggestions. And as many have pointed out, it is a rare project that uses all of C++ features, so you'll want to know what the "house style" and conventions are.
