At our talk on Framework Design Guidelines at the PDC , Krzysztof and I were asked about resources for wrapping a native code library in a nice managed code framework. This is an extremely common pattern. Organizations frequently have large "heritage" investments in C\C++\COM code and now they need to expose that functionality is way that is productive and familiar to .NET developers. Wrapping the native functionality in a well-designed managed library maximizes the productivity of the breadth of .NET developers. I promised to blog a few resources on how to best accomplish this. Jesse Kaplan recent PDC talk is relevant: Managed and Native Code Interoperability: Best Practices CLR Inside Out: Marshaling...

I’m flying to San Jose tonight for tomorrow’s OpenAjax Alliance face to face meeting , which Microsoft is hosting. On Friday, we are also hosting a new event that aims at establishing a dialogue between JavaScript library developers and Microsoft. We’ll have talks from the IE, Visual Studio and ASP.NET teams, as well as talks from members of the community. This should be very interesting. Then I’ll be flying to L.A. for the PDC . If you’re going to be there and want to chat, feel free to drop me a note at bleroy at Microsoft. I’ll be in the room during Stephen Walthers ’ session on jQuery and ASP.NET on Tuesday from 5:15 to 6:30 (403AB). I’ll also do a short demo in Scott Hunter ’s talk on the ASP.NET 4.0 Roadmap on Monday from 1:45 to 3:00...
I am very excited to be giving a Framework Design Guidelines talk at the PDC this year. Krzysztof and I think of this as our "victory lap" for publishing the Framework Design Guidelines 2nd Edition . As we were talking about what to cover in this talk, Krys and I realized that it has been just about 10 years since we started that very first version of the Framework Design Guidelines. This is well before we started working on the book, in fact it was before .NET Framework 1.0 shipped or was even announced (which, btw, was at PDC2000). We got to thinking about how things have changed, both in the guidelines and in the industry. Equally interesting is how much has stayed the same. I am particularly...
