differences in notations of namespaces   

In the object browser, some of the objects have namespaces that are 
separated by ".", while others are separated by "::".  For instance, 
System::IO::Ports..., System.IO.StringReader.... What are the differences 
between the two notations?

Please describe exactly where in Object Browser you see System::IO::Ports, 
and tell us which version of Visual Studio you are using.
In VS 2008 Object Browser, all I see is the dot (.) notation, and when I 
search with "System::IO", I get back hits on "System.IO".
