"Be a Professional Developer and Write Clean Code!" by Claudio Lassala on April 1, 2010
PRESENTATION TOPIC
"Be a Professional Developer and Write Clean Code!" - by Claudio Lassala
Poorly written code can be created quickly, but it comes at a cost of high maintenance. Most of the time, code can be improved easily by following some simple practices. Professional developers should know these practices and tools and apply it to their work every day. This session will cover the importance of writing clean code, the kind of attitude all developers should have towards the code they produce, as well as the practices and tools that can be used to aid you in becoming a better developer.

"Advance your Debugging Skills with VS 2010" by Rob Vettor on May 13, 2010
PRESENTATION TOPIC
"Advance your Debugging Skills with VS 2010" - by Rob Vettor
As a developer, you can easily spend 50% or more of your time in a debugger. Learn how to maximize your debugging productivity by leveraging the new debugging features in Visual Studio 2010.
In this session, we'll...
- Dive deep into the new IntelliTrace (formerly, historical debugging) feature, which enables you to step back in time within your debugging session and inspect or re-execute code, without having to restart your application.
- See how to manage large numbers of breakpoints with labeling, searching, and filtering.
- Extend “data tips” by adding comments, notes and strategically “pinning” these resources to maintain their visibility throughout your session.
- Demonstrate “collaborative debugging,“ by debugging a portion of an application and then exporting breakpoints and labeled data tips, so that others can leverage your effort, without having to start over.
- Leverage these new debugging features in applications built in earlier versions of the .NET Framework through the MultiTargeting features available in VS 2010.
