My First MSDN Article

  • 项目

Now that I have been here for three months I have finally gotten a few minutes to write my first article as an official Microsoft employee.  By far not my first published article, but still a bit of a milestone for me.

So in a bit of shameless self promotion you can read it here.  It is titled “Using Threading to Build a Responsive Application with Visual Studio 2005” and looks at using the new BackgroundWorker component in Visual Studio to build multi-threaded applications with a lot less pain.

While this component does not allow you to do anything you could not already do in Visual Studio 2002/2003 it makes things much easier and much faster.  Also the goal of this component and article was to remove some of the mystery or fear around multi-threaded applications and allow more developers to build responsive applications.

Feel free to share the link with your friends, families, or pets.  No I don't get a royalty, just bragging rights on the page views.

Thanks also to Bill Sempf who did a great job reviewing my article for me and made some great suggestions.

    Great article, Brad, and thanks for the plug. I agree with Larry, too. That would be a GREAT way to introduce some 'wikiness' to the article feed coming out of the VB.NET group. Even if it is just something that the individual authors do, it would be a great addition. I'll sure give it a try on my next article for you!
