Visual Studio Code Name "Orcas" March CTP

Posted on Tuesday, March 13, 2007 9:25 AM

Visual Studio Code Name "Orcas" - March Community Technology Preview (CTP) is available for download in two versions:

The features are too many to mention here, but the ones that I most look forward to trying are:

  • LINQ (LINK)
  • ADO.NET Entity Framework
  • The XSLT Debugger
  • Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) Designer
  • New Team System features
  • Windows Communication Foundation and Workflow Foundation


Feel free to drop a few cents in the tip jar if this post saved you time and money

A quick update.
The self extracting install fails on my PC when installing .NET 3.5. Not surprising as I have all versions of .NET and many versions of Visual Studio installed. The files are slightly too large to fit on one DVD which is a shame.

I will download and try the Virtual PC image (1.1GB base image + 4.5GB differential image) tonight.
