Resource Page Description Samples and documents describing VB 10.0 language and IDE features. Samples and documents for VB 10.0 can be found on the Downloads page. Please see the walkthroughs that ship with the Visual Studio 2010 CTP for additional information about these samples and the new features for the Visual Studio 2010 preview. Please submit bugs through connect, or provide comments in the discussion section of this site. It is important to remember that the code shown here is preliminary, particularly any code that might touch on the 2010 features, and is designed to run with a very early, pre-beta version of Visual Studio 10.0. This code may not work correctly, and the syntax shown in this code may change before VS 2010 is released. Thank you for your interest in Microsoft products.

Comments Support wrote Nov 28 2008 at 9:51 AM One thing that I think that could be a great feature in VB 10 or newer, if standart symbol & (ampersand) with _ that uses in sting concatination would be replaced how is done in C# using symbol before double quates @".. ", so then in VB looks like that for example: * that in old VB style: "Hello " _ & " world" * changed to that style: @"Hello world" This very helps for all developers who uses more then one line text in strings and was readable more easy. jamiebalfour wrote Dec 3 2008 at 6:04 PM There should be new controls, such as 3D modeling tools. There should also be a .avi player in the control collection. I also think there should be snippets and code support for a spell checker. Possibly a really good feature to include would be a fully functional page word processing control like TX Text control, and also the ribbon control. yakshasa wrote Dec 3 2008 at 11:49 PM I agree that there should be a version of the Office Ribbon Control available directly in VB. Vermiculus wrote Dec 6 2008 at 8:36 PM I agree, yakshasa, and i also think it would be great if there were chart and graph controls as well, similar to Excel Lonewind wrote Dec 11 2008 at 11:37 AM Can we also integrate even just some of the features of expression blend to VB? i'm more particular to the storyboard or animation whenever there are instances at VB such as mouse hovering, clicking and others as well. Fduch wrote Dec 11 2008 at 11:07 PM looks like Microsoft is abandoning VB.Net. The statement lambdas and multiline lambdas were in C# for 3-4 years. All other "features" are C# ones too. For the same 3-4 years C# has had yield return keyword that was used a lot while creating LINQ. You cannot efficiently create LINQ classes in VB.Net. And now they say they are not going to make iterators available even in VB10. If you want to try to 6tell them they are wrong vote for these bugs/suggestions on Microsoft Connect website: https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=354841 https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=381572 Sign in to add a comment
