  • Keyboard locking up in Visual Studio 2010

    One of the initiatives I’m involved with on the ASP.NET and Visual Studio teams is the Tactical Test Team (TTT), which is a group of testers who dedicate a portion of their time to roaming around and testing different parts of the product.  What this generally translates to is a day and a bit a week helping out with areas of the product that have been flagged as risky, or tackling problems that span both ASP.NET and Visual Studio.  There is also a separate component of this effort outside of TTT which is to help with customer scenarios and design.

  • ASP.NET AJAX 4.0 New Features and Video Walkthrough

    10-4 and Jonathan Carter just did a great episode where they walk through creating a sample with ADO.NET Data Services, and showcase some of the things that have changed since we released ASP.NET AJAX Preview 3.  There's some great coverage on DataView, AdoNetDataContext (formerly AdoNetDataSource), and bindings.  Jonathan also goes through command bubbling and item selection integration with master-detail DataViews.  The cool thing is that Jonathan uses imperative code, as opposed to the declarative syntax that I've gone over before in my ADO.NET post.  The choice is largely a preference, but both methods are perfectly valid.  The video is about 27 minutes long, but is well worth it.  Silverlight is required, click here for the video.
