CC Mode is a collection of 7 similar modes, of which C++ Mode is one.
(The others are C, Java, Objective C, IDL, Pike and AWK.) The stuff in
your .emacs _configures_ CC Mode in two ways: It makes the defaults for
indentation, etc., conform to your team's coding standards, and it sets
up your own personal preferences (things like Auto New Line.)

A study which I earnestly urge you to embark upon. Lisp is a much nicer,
more regular language than C or C++, and higher level, too.
You asked in another thread about making an "enum {" insert an
auto-newline. I'll get back to you on that one. :-)
