indenting for managed c++

Can anybody tell me how to indent managed c++ code (.NET 2003)
correctly. The access specifiers are incorrectly classified as
inher-cont.  For example, look at the following code,
 
public class C :                // ((inher-cont 19))
        private A               
    {
    private public:             // ((inher-cont 134))
    };

Regards,
~Yogesh

What is the "public" on the first line for?  Is "Managed C++" a
non-standard extension of C++?

Supporting this properly would mean extending the indentation engine in
CC Mode.  If you want to try this, the function is `c-guess-basic-syntax'
in the file cc-engine.el.  Fair warning: this isn't something for the
faint-hearted.  ;-)

Alternatively, you could write a line-up function for inher-cont which
would recognise that the line is really a topmost-intro (or whatever),
and then call c-indent-line, giving this tweaked syntactic context as a
parameter:  Something like this:

You take the "((inher-cont 19))", change it to "((topmost-intro 19))",
then call "(c-indent-line '((topmost-intro 19)))".

I know, it's not very satisfactory.  But it's possible.
