10 is the new 6 – Visual Studio 2010 for the native developer
Alon Fliess
You are a C++ developer, you feel abandoned. All is about managed code and C#. Not anymore! Visual Studio 2010 is the major release of Visual Studio for the native developer since VS 6.0. New IDE, no more ncb, much better intelli-sense, and improve debugger is just the tip of the iceberg in this new release. And it is not just the environment that got better. Visual Studio 2010 comes with the new C++ 0.x standard and supports the new concurrent runtime. In this lecture we will see most of the new feature of VS 2010, for the native developer. We will understand new language constructs such as lambda expressions and auto. The new ConcRT – concurrent runtime will be presented with the new Task Debugger view.
