The codename for Visual Studio 2010 is “Hawaii.” A CTP (Community Technology Preview) version was released in 2008 as a preinstalled virtual hard disk. In May 2009, the was released as an installable version, unlike the earlier CTP version that was preinstalled as a virtual hard disk.

The IDE for VS 2010 is supposed to reduce the complexity and clutter by providing better support for:

  • multiple document windows
  • floating tool windows
  • multi-monitor support

The IDE has been rewritten in WPF and the internals have been redesigned using MEF (Managed Exensibility Framework). New additions to the programming languages include:

  • F# (multi-paradigm programming language ML)
  • M – textual modelling language
  • Quadrant (visual model designer)

VS 2010 will come with version 4.0 of the NET Framework and it will target developing applications for Windows 7. Silverlight is integrated into VS 2010 and there is much better support for parallel programming. Intellisense and search abilities have been much improved in the new version.
