Visual Studio 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5 RTM

Posted on Tuesday, November 20, 2007 1:32 PM

Visual Studio 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5 have been released to manufacturing. You can find the links to the trial, express and full editions at the Visual Studio home page.

The Akamai Download Manager does not like the proxy I have at work so I have to wait until tonight before I can download it :-(




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

My download came to 93% before it stopped with a blocking "Fatal Error" tonight.

Believe me or not, but the Akamai Download Manager does not let me continue the download so I have to download everything again :-(

I think I will need visual studio from December 10th, a new work experience for me too: the difference is the I'm not leaving Reply, just joining a new team. I'm happy, I don't know too much about the Microsoft technologies, so, this will be a really "tremendous opportunity" to improve my skills.

Could you suggest me a couple of link where to start? I'm really a newbie with VisualStudio and Microsoft programming languages. I'm interested in C#, ASP.NET end also in IIS :) Thanks a lot!!

See you tomorrow,

C# is very similar to Java so you will not have any problems with the language. The .NET class library is richer than the Java library but you should find what you need without problems using MSDN [http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/default.aspx] and Google.

The main difference, if you ask me, is ASP.NET which is very different from writing JSP or servlets.

Some links for Java developers moving to C#:
