        In addition to providing support for SQL Server 2008 database projects, this release incorporates many previously released Power Tools as well as several new features. The new features include distinct Build and Deploy phases, Static Code Analysis and improved integration with SQL CLR projects.
Database Edition no longer requires a Design Database. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to install an instance of SQL Express or SQL Server prior to using Database Edition.
SQL Server Support

• SQL Server 2008
  • All new data types:
    • Intrinsic (date, datetime2, datetimeoffset, time)
    • Built-in SQL CLR types (geography, geometry, hierarchyid)
  • New DML
    • Merge, table parameters, …
• SQL Server Configuration Options
  • Server option settings will be verified prior to deployment or set during deployment
    Additional 1st Class Object Type Support
  • Rules, defaults, Asymmetric keys, symmetric keys, certificates, …

Projects

• Server Projects
  • Server objects and option settings may be implemented in a separate Server Project
  • This enables a team to define a standard a configuration for their SQL servers and reference it from their Database Projects
• Partial projects
  • Allowing code sharing between projects by including files from a different project, where the code is included as-is from the originating project and the source code control ownership remains with the originating project
  • This enables code reuse and single sourcing while having a single deployment unit
• Composite projects
  • References to other database projects or .dbschema files that contribute to the same deployment unit.
  • This enables the separation of development roles and responsibilities and composition of Databases using multiple projects.

Single sourcing of external artifacts

• SQL-CLR references allow the user to create a reference to a SQL-CLR project or SQL-CLR assembly. This automatically becomes an ASSEMBLY type in the Database Project

Build and Deploy

• The Build process now produces a separate portable schema output that is fed in to a redistributable deployment engine
• A redistributable deployment engine. For example, to implement a setup application that deploys the Database Project.

Refactoring

• Preservation of Intent
  • Enables the deployment of refactoring changes as intended by the user (renames are deployed as renames not as drop/add statements for example)

New Refactoring Operations

• Wildcard Expansion
• Move Schema
• Fully Qualify
• Extensibility point which enables the ability to develop and deploy custom refactoring types and targets

Schema Compare

• Now supports comparing Projects, Databases or dbschema files in any combination. For example, Project to Project, which has not been possible until now.
• Object Type Filtering
• Additional ignore filtering options

T-SQL Static Code Analysis

• Including the ability to develop and deploy custom rules

Dependency Viewer

• View the dependency relationship between objects in your schema

Unit testing

• Supports execution with other ADO.NET providers

Data Generation

• Design-time enhancements
  • Smaller .dgen file
  • Support for undo/redo
  • Foreign key replacement
  • Separation of population status into new display window
• Runtime enhancements
  • By default uses SqlBulkCopy to populate target tables
  • Capability to register different outputs for generated data – i.e. generate to Excel or to file so you can use BCP to load
  • By registering a custom output we have the capability to execute scripts at different points during data generation (i.e. before start/after completion or before/after a table

Extensibility

• Data Generators
• Statistical Data Distribution
• Test Conditions
• Static Code Analysis Rules
• Refactoring Types
• Refactoring Target

Visual Studio 2008 Project Templates

• Web Part
• Team Site Definition
• Blank Site Definition
• List Definition
• Empty SharePoint Project

• Web Part
• Custom Field
• List Definition (with optional Event Receiver)
• Content Type (with optional Event Receiver
• Module
• List Instance
• List Event Handler
• Template

• This stand-alone program generates a Site Definition project from an existing SharePoint site. The program enables developers to use the browser and Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer to customize the content of their sites before creating code by using Visual Studio.

The new material is designed to help .NET Developers to learn the top ten artifacts in SharePoint that are interesting to them. We’ve created a variety of materials with different learning styles to make getting started with these artifacts easy and it’s all based on the Visual Studio extensions for SharePoint – planned to release v1.2 for Visual Studio 2008 this week also (watch for their announce).

The Top Ten SharePoint Artifacts of interest to .NET Developers being promoted

F# is a programming language that provides the much sought-after combination of type safety, performance and scripting, with all the advantages of running on a high-quality, well-supported modern runtime system. F# gives you a combination of

• interactive scripting like Python,

• the foundations for an interactive data visualization environment like MATLAB,

• the strong type inference and safety of ML,

• a cross-compiling compatible core shared with the popular OCaml language,

• a performance profile like that of C#,

• easy access to the entire range of powerful .NET libraries and database tools,

• a foundational simplicity with similar roots to Scheme,

• the option of a top-rate Visual Studio integration,

• the experience of a first-class team of language researchers with a track record of delivering high-quality implementations,

• the speed of native code execution on the concurrent, portable, and distributed .NET Framework.

The only language to provide a combination like this is F# (pronounced FSharp) - a scripted/functional/imperative/object-oriented programming language that is a fantastic basis for many practical scientific, engineering and web-based programming tasks. 

F# is a pragmatically-oriented variant of ML that shares a core language with OCaml. F# programs run on top of the .NET Framework. Unlike other scripting languages it executes at or near the speed of C# and C++, making use of the performance that comes through strong typing. Unlike many statically-typed languages it also supports many dynamic language techniques, such as property discovery and reflection where needed. F# includes extensions for working across languages and for object-oriented programming, and it works seamlessly with other .NET programming languages and tools.

For further information, read about F# in more detail, download the F# distribution, read the getting started pages (a guide to installation and running your first program), go to the F# Manual, and learn about the growing F# Community. A short FAQ is also included on this site.

• About F# and comparison with OCaml, talks, performance and the FAQ.

• Getting started is a guide to installation and running your first program.

• The F# Downloads page contains release and download information for the Microsoft Research implementation of F#.

• The F# Manual focuses on F#-specific features.

• The F# Library Reference Documentation for F# specific library reference.

• The F# Community page lists key F# sites and projects.

OpenXML artık bir ISO standardı . 87 Üye Ülkenin katılımıyla gerçekleşen standartlaşma süreci bugün itibarıyla nihayete erdi ve Open XML açık dosya saklama standardı olarak ISO tarafından onaylandı. Open XML 87 Ülkenin %86'sı gibi büyük bir çoğunluğunun desteğini aldı.
