Visual Studio 2008 SP1 is out

- less than 1 minute read

Well, just after last week SQL Server 2008 was released, SP1 for Visual Studio 2008 came out today. Normally a service pack only contains some patches but this time there’s a lot of extra added features inside the package. The things I’m most looking forward to are these:

  • ADO.NET Entity framework
  • ADO.NET Data Services
  • Classic ASP support in Visual Studio.
  • ASP.NET Dynamic Data
  • …

I noticed the links on the MSDN subscription pages and you can also download the goods here.

Here you can read more about what’s inside.

Grz, Kris.
