The Moth: Multithreaded Debugging Enhancements in Visual Studio 2008 (www.danielmoth.com)

submitted by findmecool(590) 2 years, 4 months ago

Rather than writing or screenshoting the new multithreaded debugging enhancements in Visual Studio 2008, I thought I'd create a 15' video to demonstrate them. See if you can spot what the bug is before I "discover" it in my demo ;-). read more...

Moving Projects/Solutions between Orcas and Visual Studio 2005 (www.west-wind.com)

published 2 years, 6 months ago, submitted by rstrahl(7085) 2 years, 6 months ago

With Orcas supporting multi-targeting it'll be common to work in Orcas with .NET 2.0 projects. Orcas updates projects and solution files but as it turns out it's not difficult to move projects and solutions between VS 2005 and Orcas. read more...

Orcas JavaScript Intellisense (www.west-wind.com)

published 2 years, 6 months ago, submitted by rstrahl(7085) 2 years, 6 months ago

A few quick tests to see what JavaScript features show up with Intellisense in the new Orcas Intellisense features. Unfortunately it looks like at least in Orcas Beta 1 a number of common JavaScript scenarios either don't produce proper Intellisense or actually break Intellisense altogether. read more...

Preliminary thoughts on TDD with MSTest in Orcas (joeydotnet.com)

published 2 years, 7 months ago, submitted by jbeninghove(790) 2 years, 7 months ago

Naysawn, the PM for MSTest, asked that I take a look at the new unit testing features of Orcas, after he read my thoughts on the (sad) current state of MSTest. Unfortunately, I haven't yet had a chance to actually fire up the Orcas VPC to play with it, but Naysawn wrote up a couple of posts describing some of the new features coming to MSTest in Orcas. So I figured I'd post some initial feedback on his posts as it relates to TDD... read more...

VS 2008 Multi-Targeting Support (weblogs.asp.net)

published 2 years, 7 months ago, submitted by crpietschmann(11.1k) 2 years, 7 months ago

One of the big changes we are making starting with the VS 2008 release is to support what we call "Multi-Targeting" - which means that Visual Studio will now support targeting multiple versions of the .NET Framework, and developers will be able to start taking advantage of the new features Visual Studio provides without having to always upgrade their existing projects and deployed applications to use a new version of the .NET Framework library. read more...

submitted by MrOK(90) 2 years, 8 months ago

"LINQ to SQL is an O/RM (object relational mapping) implementation that ships in the .NET Framework "Orcas" release, and which allows you to model a relational database using .NET classes. You can then query the database using LINQ, as well as update/insert/delete data from it. LINQ to SQL fully supports transactions, views, and stored procedures.
