For hardcore ReSharper users, you can do lots of amazing work with this tool like resolving namespaces, removing unused using statements and ordering them and so on. However, sometimes, when you don’t work on your own machine, you definitely will met with the situation that ReSharper doesn’t appear at that place. You will be very uncomfortable cause you have got used to those features.

Well, VS 2008 does offer these features out-of-the-box! Check it out by the following link.

Luckily I got a chance to attend a small meeting presented by Scott Guthrie at Microsoft’s Shanghai office. I got some photos!

It’s been only one hour for this temporary small meeting, or actually it’s just a discussion with him.

Anyway, it’s excited to meet the REAL Scott  here in local Shanghai, and this is my first excitation in 2008!!!

Hibernate In Action is simply one word that incredible.

I have spent a lot of time on NHibernate study before I started to read this book. A lot of blog posts, articles, and even so much time on the help document of NHibernate. However, to be honest, I have never felt like I have mastered this technology. E.g., the entity type and the value type, oh my god, I did not truly understand these things until I read Hibernate In Action.

The .NET port of this book, NHibernate In Action is also on its way to be released. I’m looking forward its coming. I strongly recommend that you should read these two books if you want to learn this incredible ORM technology.

Hope this helps,
