19. Mobile Development Works side-by-side with Visual Studio 2005 In-box support for Windows Mobile 5.0 SDKs Unit Testing Integration with Visual Studio Team System Security Aware IDE Device Emulator 3.0

20. Create unit tests for device applications using the VSTS Unit Test infrastructure

21. Latest Windows Mobile SDKs ship in the box Ability to target multiple versions of the.NET Compact Framework runtime

22. Device Security Manager makes it easy to deal with complex device security settings Better understand current device security settings Easy to change the device into a specific security setting to test application under different security profiles

23. Device emulator offers the ability to emulate new hardware peripherals Device emulator emulating Windows Embedded CE 6.0 operating system

24. Emulating a low battery scenario. This feature is very helpful for device developers to see how their application will behave in a low battery scenario on a real device

26. Data Access & Programmability Language Integrated Query (LINQ) LINQ to XML LINQ to Objects ADO.NET “Orcas” Entity Framework LINQ-enabled ADO.NET LINQ to Dataset LINQ to Entities LINQ to SQL

27. The LINQ Project LINQtoEntitiesLINQToSQLLINQ to toXML C#VB.NetOthers… LINQToDatasetLINQToObjects LINQ-enabled ADO.NET

28. using System; using System.Query; using System.Collections.Generic; class app { static void Main() { string[] names = { "Allen", "Arthur", "Bennett" }; IEnumerable ayes = names.Where(s => s[0] == 'A'); foreach (string item in ayes) Console.WriteLine(item); names[0] = "Bob"; foreach (string item in ayes) Console.WriteLine(item); } Arthur Language Integrated Query “LINQ” Integrated, native query syntax in C# and VB –IntelliSense and Autocompletion Query Operators can be used against any.NET collection (IEnumerable ) –Built-in examples: Select, Where, GroupBy, Join, etc. –Extensibility model supports extending/replacing these Deferred Query Evaluation Lambda Expressions using System; using System.Query; using System.Collections.Generic; class app { static void Main() { string[] names = { "Allen", "Arthur", "Bennett" }; IEnumerable ayes = names.Where(s => s[0] == 'A'); foreach (string item in ayes) Console.WriteLine(item); names[0] = "Bob"; foreach (string item in ayes) Console.WriteLine(item); } Allen Arthur using System; using System.Query; using System.Collections.Generic; class app { static void Main() { string[] names = { "Burke", "Connor", "Frank", "Everett", "Albert", "George", "Harris", "David" }; IEnumerable expr = from s in names where s.Length == 5 orderby s select s.ToUpper(); foreach (string item in expr) Console.WriteLine(item); } BURKE DAVID FRANK using System; using System.Query; using System.Collections.Generic; class app { static void Main() { string[] names = { "Burke", "Connor", "Frank", "Everett", "Albert", "George", "Harris", "David" }; Func filter = s => s.Length == 5; Func extract = s => s; Func project = s = s.ToUpper(); IEnumerable expr = names.Where(filter).OrderBy(extract).Select(project); foreach (string item in expr) Console.WriteLine(item); } BURKE DAVID FRANK

29. ADO.NET “Orcas” at-a-glance Data modeling at the conceptual level –Separate apps from database schemas Better integration with.NET –Interact with data as objects or as rows and columns, your choice Better integration with programming languages –Language-integrated query support

30. Entity Framework Conceptual expression of a logical schema that makes sense to your app Different apps may have different views (Entity Data Models – EDM’s) of the same data in a backend store Entity Data Model Designer –Integrated into the Orcas IDE –Create entities from scratch or generate EDM models from an existing database –Easily consume existing EDM models Entity SQL “eSQL” may be used to query an Entity Data Model
