It took a while for the session catalog to update online, but it's official now:
DEV311 - Modern Programming with C++0x in Microsoft Visual C++ 2010
Session Type: Breakout Session
Track: Developer Tools, Languages
& Frameworks
Speaker(s): Kate Gregory
Why wait for the C++ committee to finish the
specification when you can enjoy much of the power of C++0x today! C++0x, the
next C++ standard, is almost upon us and it contains the most important updates
to the language since the mid-90s. It even accepts the existence of multiple
threads for the first time in the history of the language. Needless to say,
these new features bring more expressiveness and power to the native C++
developer. Visual Studio 2010 has added support for some of these key features
in order to enable these modern programming techniques. This session clarifies
what features are in Visual C++ 2010 and what is yet to come. It illustrates how
new constructs such as lambda expressions enable better use of existing
libraries and how your code can be simpler, safer and faster all at the same
time. If you are itching to show off how C++ is one of the coolest languages on
the planet, this talk is for you!WCL322 - The Windows API Code Pack: Add Windows 7 Features to Your
Application
Session Type: Breakout Session
Track: Windows Client
Speaker(s):Kate Gregory
Accessing new Windows 7 features is a challenge from
managed (.NET) code. The level of interoperability required is out of reach for
many developers. The Windows API Code Pack for the Microsoft .NET Framework is a
sample library you can use in your own projects today that provides access to
new user interface features (taskbar jumplists, libraries, sensor platform and
more) as well as "behind the scenes" features that make your applications more
aware and responsive (restart and recovery, power management and more.) Discover
a shortcut to Windows 7 development for Microsoft Visual Basic and Visual C#
programmers and get started today.
I've done talks with these titles and abstracts before, but I'm not repeating those this time. I'm rejigging the demos pretty substantially and generally rewriting the talks. Register now, and I hope to see you there!
