C# beyond 3.0

[Néstor Sánchez]

Hi,
is there a tentive roadmap/features already semi-official for the next
version(s) of C#?
I'm interesting in the features of C# 4.0, maybe... Aspects? "Polyphony" ?
Memory-Transactions? LINQ extensions?
And what about the CLR? I know in .NET 3.0 the CLR will be the same 2.0
core... what's the vision for CLR 3.0?

Just curiosity.

Re: C# beyond 3.0

I don't think there are any plans to add aspects to C#, but there are a
few open source AOP frameworks around.

Polyphony is already available in a reasearch extension to C# called
Comega:

There is a Microsoft Research API for memory transactions called SXM:

LINQ support will be included in C# 3.0.

RE: C# beyond 3.0

There is hardly any official roadmap for C# 4.0, what I've seen in inet it's
some post about new desired features, but nothing officially was mentioned.

C# 4.0 features will be kwown only when we understand the prons and cons of
C# 3.0.
STM is still in the phase of investigation (last 5 years) and it's hard to
tell when they are goint to include in any C# version.

Now abt .NET FW, C# 3.0 will be the part of the next version of .NET, not
3.0, but 3.5 that will come with VS Orcas.

Great links Chris. The SXM link you posted is incorrect (it didn't
work for anyway). Here's another.

PostSharp (http://www.postsharp.org) is another AOP framework that does
the job at compile time.
