Questions tagged [visual-studio-2010]

Visual Studio 2010 is an integrated development environment (IDE) from Microsoft. Use this tag only for questions arising from the use of this particular version of Visual Studio, and not about any code just written in it.

Visual Studio 2010 is the version of Visual Studio preceding Visual Studio 2012 and succeeding Visual Studio 2008. It comes with partial C++11 support and the .NET Framework 4, as well as built-in tools for working with a variety of native, .NET and web development languages. It has integrated support for developing Microsoft Silverlight applications, including an interactive designer.

Visual Studio 2010 offers several tools to make parallel programming simpler: in addition to the Parallel Extensions for the .NET Framework and the Parallel Patterns Library for native code, Visual Studio 2010 includes tools for debugging parallel applications.

Visual Studio 2010 got its first service pack on March 3, 2011 with build number SP1Rel 10.0.40219.1.
