Just Pile it On
Just got a copy of Visual Studio 2005 Beta 1 in the mail today, which I'm looking forward to checking out to see how much has changed since I compared the older Visual Studio .NET and Eclipse. Notice that VS 2005 doesn't explicitly mention .NET. So naturally I'm looking for a "real" project to do in it. If a great idea for a project doesn't fall out of the sky, I'll probably write Tetris (TM) in .NET again. The first time I wrote it a hard drive crash erased the source code. :S Though I do still have the compiled version somewhere. Update: I'll check out the .NET options for reading id3 tags, and if they are lacking I might port jid3rL to the .NET framework.

Just arrived? Did you register your old copy? Sign up on-line? Sign up somwhere? Someone from Microsoft noticed that Eclipse v. VS.NET post and offered me a copy of the beta. You can go to the first link and download beta1, I'm pretty sure. » Posted by: Ryan at August 25, 2004 11:51 PM |
