Sessions

Simplifying Asynchronous Programming with the Microsoft Async CTP

Level: 300
Track: None
Time: 12:45 PM - 02:00 PM
Day: 1
Room: Component One

The Microsoft Visual Studio Async CTP proposes a new language feature in C# and VB that will make asynchronous programming very similar to synchronous programming. Current asynchrony patterns are very disruptive to program structure which can lead to far too complex and error prone code. After a lot of hard work the result is likely unappealing, hard to read, and probably full of bugs. The Async CTP aims to solve all of these problems. By the end of this session, you should have a good introduction to the Async CTP and have the ability to put native asynchrony to work in your day-to-day work life.
