VS 2013 Preview
-
Looks like it's full of "Farfegnugen" (German for "nothing especially interesting"). ---------------- We’re excited to announce that Visual Studio 2013 Preview is now available! The rapid evolution of software development requires a rapid delivery cadence for both the tools and the frameworks you use. Visual Studio 2013 Preview and .NET 4.5.1 Preview provide new capabilities that will help you deliver continuous innovation for your customers, by providing enhanced development capabilities and agile team collaboration tools to deliver in faster cycles. • Create outstanding experiences across Windows devices, including the latest development, design and diagnostics tools for Windows 8.1. • Create modern web applications and services on-premises or in the cloud, with the new additions to Visual Studio and ASP.NET that simplify web development across multiple browsers and devices. • Achieve business agility with an integrated solution that enables shorter cycles, now including agile portfolio management, real-time collaboration with team room and easier access to the information you need directly from the code editor. • Continuously enable quality throughout the development process, with enhanced testing tools that leverage the cloud for enabling new scenarios such as cloud-based load testing. Take advantage of these powerful tools and services by downloading Visual Studio 2013 Preview today! Sincerely, The MSDN Subscriptions Team ------------------ Like Windows 8, this looks like one to skip. Of particular note is that they don't have a line item that reads something like "We listened to our customers, and fixed all that annoying shit you guys mentioned with regards to VS2012."

Which arsehole at Microsoft came up with that? Like the rest of the announcement it says a lot but tells you little. I'll skip it.

"Why don't you tie a kerosene-soaked rag around your ankles so the ants won't climb up and eat your candy ass." - Dale Earnhardt, 1997One thing it does have that I am interested in is more C++11 support. November CTP included variadic templates and initializer_lists that were buggy and did not have std library changes. With the Visual Studio 2013 preview, the quality of implementation is improved, and the features now have std library support. In addition, with a go-live license - this is the first time you can use variadic templates in production with Visual C++.

There's a reason I'm still running VS2010 :) And like Windows ME, hopefully they realize that Windows 8 is just that painful step between a good operating system and an even better one. :beer: Here's to Windows 9 and the return of the start menu and desktop :)

yes, an actual substantive improvement beyond the "cloud fluff" and new colors/icons for the IDE :) Still using VS2010 and was disappointed to learn I can't use range for or enum class...

No, not exactly, although every time I boot my Win 8 machine I have to explicitly hit a button to go to the desktop and then wait another 30-60 seconds for Explorer to load. Win 8.1 is bringing back boot-to-desktop and although the button for the start "menu" is there, all it does is bring up the huge full screen super annoying menu. Granted 8.1 is better than it is currently on 8 with vertical scrolling and sorting, but in the current version of Win8, finding my installed programs is not easy, to the point I just made shortcuts to all of them on the desktop which I hate to do.

Very true -- been running Win8 on my laptop for some time and I don't think I ever use any of the apps and rarely even go to the start screen. I pin'd the apps I used to the taskbar and just use that. I think for a touch device they may be nice, but I haven't found any need for the store apps on a laptop.

Years ago Volkswagen used this word in thier television advertising, at least in the U.S. Perhaps to John it meant nothing especially interesting because, "It's not a car, it's a Volkswagen." Another of their equally ineffective advertising tag lines.

I knew there had to be a story behind it. I have a Volkswagen, and it's boooring. John has a Mustang. I've never driven a newer Mustang, but the '67 is NOT boring. The cornering is almost dangerous, but not boring.

Yeah I think I agree. My only reason for upgrading is for C++11 features, most of which are in the VS2012 release (also otherwise boring and I still hate that it SHOUTS TOO MUCH).
