Extension methods is a nice one, you can "extend" a class by using static methodsDrXThirst wrote:I'm interested. What new features does it have?
for example, for reversing a string you could do this:
Code: Select all
public static class Extensions
{
public static string Reverse([b]this[/b] string strToReverse)
{
char[] temp = strToReverse.ToCharArray();
Array.Reverse(temp);
return new string(temp);
}
}
Code: Select all
string temp = "abcdefg";
temp = temp.Reverse();
// instead of:
string temp = "abcdefg";
temp = Reverse(temp);
Code: Select all
public Int SomeNumber
{
get;
set;
}
Code: Select all
private int _someNumber;
public int SomeNumber
{
get{return _someNumber;}
set{_someNumber = value;}
}

- A more responsive IDE.
- 'Extensions' for built-in types, like jo0 said above.
- Functionality to remove un-needed using statements.
- Functionality to make the Intellisense go transparent, and thus not hide code.
- Intellisense also lists what's relevant to what you typed. Meaning type 'K' and only those beginning with the letter will be listed.
- Access to code with-in the net framework libraries through the debugger. Also allows break-points.

- Can target the 2.0 net framework.
