VSLive 2005 - San Francisco... See You There!
Earlier this month, Visual Studio Magazine was requesting ideas for session topics for VSLive! 2005. I took a few minutes and made some suggestions, and last week they made an offer to me to run a session. I just accepted that offer, so on Tuesday, Feb 8th, 2005 from 5:45 - 6:45pm I'll be giving a presentation on "Building Complex Server Controls in Visual Studio 2005". I'll basically be discussing composite control development, the capabilities of the new CompositeControl base class, and the new design-time capabilities, along with therest of the features common to all new server controls.
