BASTA Spring 2013 - C# Powerworkshop

25 February 2013 - .NET, C#

Auf der BASTA 2013 Spring Konferenz habe ich einen ganztägigen Workshop zum Thema C# mit Schwerpunkt auf parallele und asynchrone Programmierung gehalten. In diesem Blogartikel gibt es die Slides und Samples zum Download.

Abstract

Hier der Vollständigkeit halber nochmals der Abstract für den Workshop:

Die fünfte Version von C# ist da. Zeit, sich intensiv damit auseinanderzusetzen und einen Blick in die Zukunft zu werfen. Rainer Stropek bietet auch dieses Jahr wieder geballtes C#-Wissen in diesem ganztägigen Workshop an. Der Schwerpunkt sind die Neuerungen von C# 5 hinsichtlich asynchroner und paralleler Programmierung. Rainer wiederholt zu Beginn die Grundlagen der parallelen Programmierung mit .NET (und wird dabei viele nützliche Tipps weitergeben). Danach geht er auf die Anwendung dieser Basics in C# 5 mit async/await ein. Wir kratzen nicht nur an der Oberfläche, sondern gehen wirklich ins Detail. Am Nachmittag wird Rainer einen Ausblick auf die Zukunft von C# geben und zeigen, was Projekte wie "Roslyn" an Änderungen für C#-Entwickler bringen werden.

Slides

Hier gibt es die Slides als PDF Datei zum Download.

Samples

Im Workshop haben wir live eine ganze Reihe von Samples erarbeitet. Die gesamte Sammlung an Samples gibt es hier zum Download. Falls jemand nur ein Code Snippet sucht und nicht alle Samples herunterladen möchte, füge ich unten die wichtigsten Sourcen direkt in den Text dieses Blogartikels ein.
