Whidbey Time!#

All right, I finally got some dedicated time do some Whidbey this week: I'm at Microsoft Belgium for a few days looking into all the new stuff :-)

One of the perks of being at the source: you get the latest build, in stead of the PDC build which misses some features. For instance, a new Windows Forms class isn't declared as a partial type yet (with the designer-generated code in a separate file). The same goes for typed DataSets: no partial types there yet in the PDC build. And the narrowing property visibility feature doesn't work yet either (e.g. have a public getter and an internal setter). All fixed in the latest build though :-)

I'll try to blog a lot about my findings - sort of as an "I'm sorry" for the fact that I didn't cover the PDC very well (hardly at all actually). On the other hand: a lot of people have done a much better job at that than I could have. I still have a thing or two to say about the PDC but it's getting pretty outdated don't you think ;-)

This is my personal website, not my boss', not my mother's, and certainly not the pope's. My personal opinions may be irrelevant, inaccurate, boring or even plain wrong, I'm sorry if that makes you feel uncomfortable. But then again, you don't have to read them, I just hope you'll find something interesting here now and then. I'll certainly do my best. But if you don't like it, go read the pope's blog. I'm sure it's fascinating.
