Well the C-h v help for dabbrev-case-fold-search doesn't say much, I
admit - the really useful information is in the Emacs "Abbrevs" info
nodes. Since C++ is case sensitive, I find dynamic expansion more
natural if it doesn't use expansions with the wrong case. YMMV. I'd
used Emacs on and off for about /five years/ before somebody told me
about M-/
