Visual Studio 2010 Training Kit

For those who are looking for a good place to start with .NET 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010, you can download from Microsoft a complete training kit containing a whole lot of first class information about the next major .NET release and its sidekick. :) Here is the link to the download page : http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=752CB725-969B-4732-A383-ED5740F02E93&displaylang=en

Things I love about Visual Studio 2010: IntelliTrace

Image
IntelliTrace is the next step in evolution for debuggers. It allows you to track everything that is happening during a debug session. It can track actions like clicking on a button, reading for a file, executing an ADO.NET call (including the actual call !) and a lot of other things. You can think of IntelliTrace as some sort of log for all actions of the program. You can also record the call stack for each event but it will slow down the debugging experience and you won't be able to use the "Edit and Continue" feature anymore, but it will allow to have much more details about the execution context of each event.
