Tuesday June 8th, 1:30PM – 2:45PM
Abstract: The new features of C# 4.0 focuses on being a good citizen in a big world. In this talk we look at named and optional arguments, as well as the much improved COM interaction. We pay special attention to the new dynamic feature and the Dynamic Language Runtime (DLR) that it builds on: How do they work, how can you use them and why did we design them this way. We interoperate with COM and the HTML DOM, and build our own dynamic objects.

DEV401: ADVANCED USE OF THE NEW VISUAL BASIC 2010 LANGUAGE FEATURES
by Lucian Wischik
Wednesday June 9th, 9:45AM – 11:00AM
Abstract: Come learn some impressive power scenarios with the new Visual Basic 2010 language features. Use array literals and collection initializers in clever ways to make your own APIs more elegant. Learn the correct way to inherit from DynamicObject, and create “mock” objects on-the-fly. See how to work with multiline lambdas to write better multi-core and Microsoft Silverlight code. See what are the limits of property initializers -- and push those limits. Learn what’s special about “Nothing” and why so many people get it wrong.

DEV307: F# IN MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO 2010
by Luke Hoban
Thursday June 10th, 9:45AM – 11:00AM
Abstract: Visual Studio 2010 provides integrated support for F#, a productive new functional and object-oriented programming language for the Microsoft .NET Framework. This session highlights the many ways developers can leverage F# in Visual Studio 2010, including examples of when and where F# can be applied most effectively, how F# integrates naturally with existing solutions, and shows many of the most exciting features of the F# language and tools. Demos range from real-world high-productivity exploration with the F# Interactive, up to robust .NET component development, while introducing powerful F# language features like support for parallelism, succinct expressive syntax, rich access to .NET, and the more declarative functional style of programming in F#.

DEV10-INT: USING DYNAMIC LANGUAGES TO BUILD SCRIPTABLE APPLICATIONS
by Dino Viehland
Wednesday June 9th, 8:00AM – 9:15AM
Abstract: The Dynamic Language Runtime (DLR) brings the power of dynamic languages to Microsoft .NET. It provides the plumbing for IronPython and IronRuby, a shared language hosting API, and also enables interoperability with static languages like C# and Visual Basic. Come hear how you can leverage these technologies in your own applications, and learn why dynamic languages deserve a spot in your toolbox!
