General information:

Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 delivers on Microsoft’s vision of smart client applications by enabling developers to rapidly create connected applications that deliver the highest quality, rich user experiences. With Visual Studio 2008, organizations will find it easier than ever before to capture and analyze information to help them make effective business decisions. Visual Studio 2008 enables organizations of every size to rapidly create more secure, manageable, and reliable applications that take advantage of Windows Vista™ and the 2007 Office system. Visual Studio 2008 delivers key advances for developers in three primary pillars:

  • Rapid application development

  • Effective team collaboration

  • Breakthrough user experiences

Benefits

  • Developing Smart Client Applications. Visual Studio 2008 delivers new and easy ways for developers to build smart clients. It provides a comprehensive set of tools and classes that simplify integrating smart clients with new or existing Web applications, and it enables local data caching for disconnected scenarios.

  • Creating Microsoft Office Applications. Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO) is fully integrated into Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition. Developers can now customize various Office applications, such as Outlook® and PowerPoint®, to improve user productivity and simplify deployment.

  • Building Windows Vista Applications. Developers can easily leverage new platform technologies, and deliver more compelling applications to their customers, by effortlessly incorporating new Windows Presentation Foundation features into both existing Windows Forms applications and new applications.

  • Handling Data More Productively. The introduction of Language Integrated Query (LINQ) and other data-access improvements enable developers to apply a consistent programmatic approach to data handling, perform data access with new data-design surfaces, and use built-in classes for the occasionally connected design pattern.

  • Enabling New Web Experiences. Developers can easily create efficient, interactive Web applications with Visual Studio 2008. Seamless integration of the familiar ASP.NET AJAX programming model enables more efficient client-side execution, giving end users a more responsive Web interface. JavaScript IntelliSense and debugging further improve the development experience.

  • Gaining an Improved Overall Developer Experience. Visual Studio 2008 delivers a better developer experience overall through the combination of significant product quality improvements, and changes to the way the most popular design surfaces return errors to the user. In addition, Visual Studio 2008 simplifies the user’s ability to adopt the toolset and framework separately by enabling developers to target different .NET Framework platforms.

  • Improving Application Lifecycle Management (ALM). ALM features in Visual Studio provide great support not only for managing the entire software-development life cycle, but also for critical interaction with an enterprise application’s final end-users and IT stakeholders.

Top Ten Reasons to Upgrade

1. WORK WITH DATA IN A UNIFIED AND INTEGRATED WAY

  • Be more productive by using a single approach to querying and manipulating data that’s integrated with the way you write code—in the programming language.

  • Use a single model to query and transform XML, SQL Server and object data with Language-Integrated Query, helping you focus on what you need the data to do rather than how you are going to access the data.

2. WORK WITH USER INTERFACE DESIGNERS

  • Share user interface assets, such as design elements and controls, with graphic designers that use Microsoft Expression: both Microsoft Expression Web (ASP.NET) and Microsoft Expression Blend (WPF) are supported.

3. EMPLOY THE LATEST WEB USER INTERFACE TECHNIQUES

  • New support for web server communication techniques for AJAX/JSON-enabled websites.

  • New ASP.NET controls that allow for better page management and templates.

  • Native support for RSS and REST by the Windows Communication Foundation.

4. BUILD STUNNING APPLICATIONS FOR WINDOWS VISTA

  • Build powerful Windows-based applications that take advantage of Windows Forms and Windows Presentation Foundation to make your applications really stand out.

  • Benefit from Smart Client application enhancements that improve deployment and disconnected scenarios.

5. BUILD HIGHER QUALITY APPLICATIONS WITH INTEGRATED UNIT TESTING

  • Powerful unit-testing tools are now integrated directly into Visual Studio Professional.

6. ENJOY GREAT SUPPORT FOR DESIGNING WEB APPLICATIONS

  • Cascading style sheet and HTML editors have been greatly enhanced for productivity gains.

  • Breakthrough JavaScript support has been integrated within Visual Studio 2008, including IntelliSense and debugging.

7. BUILD APPLICATIONS THAT RUN ON MULTIPLE VERSIONS OF THE .NET FRAMEWORK

  • With previous versions of Visual Studio, you could only build applications that ran on one version of the .NET Framework; now you can use one tool—Visual Studio 2008 — to build applications that work with .NET Framework versions 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5.

8. BUILD OFFICE-BASED APPLICATIONS

  • Visual Studio 2008 Professional now includes tools for Office development.

  • Built-in tools help make Office look-and-feel interfaces, like the “fluent ribbon”, quickly and easily.

  • Click-Once deployment for applications built for Office using Visual Studio 2008.

9. USE WORKFLOW AND COMMUNICATION TOOLS

  • Built-in tools for developing business logic using Windows Workflow Foundation enables modeling of real-world business processes in software.This includes a workflow designer, project templates and a workflow debugger.

  • Built-in tools for implementing communications software with Windows Communication Foundation, providing support for a wide array of transports and protocols.

10. BENEFIT FROM PERFORMANCE AND STABILITY ACROSS THE BOARD

  • The highest quality Visual Studio release ever ensures that you are more productive during development.
