Syntax coloring of own types in Visual Studio (C++)

Question

How can I get Visual Studio to highlight my own class types? This works fine for C# but not for C++...

Answer 1

For those running Visual Studio 2010 Highlighterr may fit your needs. It's also in the MSDN Visual Studio Gallery. It leverages the improved C++ IntelliSense in 2010.

It makes you set special highlighters in Environment -> Fonts and Colors for the types it detects, but overall it works quite well from what I've seen.
