M-x font-lock-mode
will turn on fontifcation (syntax highlighting) for the current buffer,
assuming there is a syntax table. For most programming modes (including C and 
C++)
there is.

M-x font-lock-fontify-buffer
will force emacs to refontify the buffer. This normally happens automatically,
but emacs can get confused when you comment out a section of code (or uncomment 
it).
Emacs will also refuse to automatically fontify large files, this command will 
force
emacs to do so.
