Extract to User Control in visual studio11(www.dotnetjalps.com)

submitted by jalpesh(1352) 5 days, 5 hours ago

I have been playing with Visual Studio 11 beta recently and everyday I am amazed with new features of it. Today I have found one more very useful feature Extract to User Control feature. In large projects, we are having large pages and its always good to user control(.ascx) but sometimes we are so lazy to create user controls and we remain with the whole page and even we can’t reuse that code. In similar kind of situation ‘Extract to user control’ can be quite useful. Suppose we have long HTML mark up and we need to convert one div to user control and then we can do it very easily with Visual Studio 11 beta Extract to User Control feature. read more...

Creating a Centralized NuGet Packages Folder(www.chrispoulter.com)

submitted by chrispoulter(105) 16 days, 9 hours ago

I would imagine most people by now will have discovered and use the NuGet Visual Studio extension (http://www.nuget.org/). It is a great way of adding and maintaining 3rd party code libraries in your projects. One problem I find though is that every time I create a new project or solution I end up installing the same old NuGet packages. By default NuGet downloads the source code for these packages into a new "packages" folder in your project/solution root directory. This means I have the same source code downloaded multiple times, in multiple locations. This can easily be fixed as you can... read more...

I am loving visual studio 2011 beta more and more after exploring features that make developer’s life easy.

Visual Studio Async(blog.agafonov.net.ua)

submitted by blogkicker(65) 3 months, 15 days ago

The Visual Studio Async CTP combines a new simple and composable pattern for asynchronous APIs, with "await" and "async" language keywords in Visual Basic and C#, that avoids asynchronous code having to be written "inside-out" using callbacks. The CTP is a painless install/uninstall on top of Visual Studio 2010 RTM, and comes with plenty of samples and documentation. The single AsyncCtpLibrary assembly is just 104Kb, and the Silverlight version only 132Kb. Recommended, because it's pretty likely you'll see this in C# 5. Multiple logical flow are really simple to implement now. No extra threads running, but you can implement them customly. read more...
