Visual Studio 2012 – A Sneak Peek At Microsoft’s Upcoming Product

Visual Studio 2012 - Microsoft is all set to release the next increment of its popular development environment. Visual Studio 2010 has made and continues to make a huge impact on the IDE market. I’m a fan of their developer tools, especially when it comes to Visual Studio. The kind of development environment it offers for developers is just seamless!

With so much for me to yet discover and learn about the Visual Studio 2012, i’m excited to discuss about its next version and what all will it be offering to the development community. So here are some of the few fascinating features that i have discovered so far; that’ll make it on Visual Studio 2012.
This is a feature that you can use while writing your code. You can maximize the code window by selecting it, thus hiding your solution explorer and the output window.

This was possible before way back in the 1990′s in Visual Basic 6, but now you can do this in Visual Studio 2012. You can pause your code during execution, modify it and then the compiler handles the rest for you.

A real handy feature for all developers.
Will probably help reduce the number of silly mistakes while programming. Useful to compensate the programmer’s forgetfulness, when it comes to adding semi colons at the end of statements. There are potential rumours that the compiler may also add closing brackets and braces. Damn you Microsoft  for making the programmer’s work more convenient and lazy!
A widely embraced feature by most lazy programmers and students. Copying and pasting code picked up from the internet will just become more convenient. Visual studio will now apply its own changes to the copied code and redevelop it for you so that it makes some sense.

Visual Studio 2012 IntelliSense

For all those who copy and paste code directly without even thinking for a second now have an evil monkey by their side. This new feature included in the IntelliSense will point out at the part of the code that has to be written the correct way and ask you to Google it on how to do it, as the source points. Again, no candy for Bing eh?
Be it VB, C# or F#, while viewing your code, you can have it translated to any of these languages you wish to view your code in.
A better “Add Reference” dialog that provides a blend of speed and flexibility as demanded by people earlier.

Thanks & regards,
