Visual Studio 2010 CTP now available

Co­in­cid­ing with the 2008 PDC, the first Vi­sual Stu­dio 2010 CTP is now avail­able for down­load. At first glance, it in­cludes a few in­ter­est­ing things for C++:

• Par­tial C++0x sup­port: lambda ex­pres­sions, rvalue ref­er­ences, sta­tic as­ser­tions, and “auto” are now sup­ported.
• Re­vamped In­tel­liSense: now faster and more ac­cu­rate.
• Par­al­lel Pat­tern Li­brary: a mod­ern C++ li­brary that al­lows eas­ier and safer use of today’s multi-threaded com­put­ing.

I’ll be post­ing more as I take a closer look at these and other fea­tures.
