.NET Framework 3.0 Release Candidate 1 is Available

posted Tue 05 Sep 06
Here are some pretty handy links that will get you all the goodies you need:

.NET Framework 3.0 Release Candidate 1 Runtime Components

Visual Studio 2005 Extensions for Windows Workflow Foundation Release Candidate 5

According to Rob Relyea's blog, they anticipate the Orcas stuff to show up this week (9/5-9/9) and the Expression tools to go live today (9/5).

Also, here's a link to the .NET 3.0 RC1 SDK DVD. Keep in mind that the SDK contains no .NET 3.0 runtime components - it is just SDK content. In fact, this version of the SDK no longer includes the Windows Powershell.

I get lost on where the new entity framework resides, is that part of .net v3? I want to use L2E! :)

.NET Framework 3.0 is an unfortunate name, really. It is actually just the collection of stuff that used to be called WinFX: Windows Presentation Foundation, Windows Communication Foundation, and Windows Workflow Foundation, and Windows CardSpace. The ADO.NET Entity Framework is part of ADO.NET vNext, which is currently in an August CTP release right now. That framework requires the next version of C#, which supports LINQ and Language Extensions - that version of C# used to be called 3.0 - I have no idea what they're going to call it now.

man that is so confusing! I couldn't believe they called winfx .net 3 ... especially since it won't include c# 3.0 or anything we want ;) Does anyone know of a planned release date for the entity framework? or LINQ? - I have a huge project that grew over the last 2 years and it needs a lot of refactory including some o/r mapping and I'd like to use this ... since its a rewrite anyway. :)

thanks, Kevin - nice blog.

No known official release date for the Entity Framework, but they're saying it might ship Q1 2007 (rumors). I also have a LINQ-based application I've been writing that I want to rewrite in EF.
