Sadly I was unable to attend, but watching a few videos over the weekend is enough to get my juices flowing for what is coming down the pike for .NET and ASP.NET and C#. Here are a few notes and links:
Amazingly cool stuff coming up for .NET:
Next Generation of .NET for Building Applications
- .NET Native: (22:40) will eventually be available beyond Win 8 RT apps
- SIMD: (36:00) up to 8x performance improvement in parallel operations on multiple data streams
Future of Visual Basic and C#
- Roslyn
- super fast in-memory next generation .NET compiler
- inline renaming - wow!
- open source - on codeplex
- C#
- primary ctor: public class Point(int h, int w)
- getter only auto property: public int Height { get; } = h;
Even more amazingly cool stuff coming for ASP.NET:
