    Visual Studio IDE tooltip meaning

    While on Visual Studio (at least on version 2005) if you type
    something line “new object(“ the moment you type the open parenthesis
    character you get a tooltip that displays “object.Object” .

    If you do it for nullables such as typing “new Nullable<int>(“ the
    tooltip displays “int?.Nullable” .

    My question is what’s the meaning of the tooltip text? In the case of
    the nullable example, why does the tooltip displays “int?” then a dot
    and then “Nullable”? What does that syntax means?

    Thanks.
