Just another ignorant weirdo from Antwerp, Belgium trying to make sense out of it all
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 I still have a thing or two to say about the PDC but it's getting pretty outdated don't you think
