<p>In Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9 Preview 3 we added support for deploying CMake projects to a remote Windows machine and debugging them with the Visual Studio remote tools. CMake developers targeting ARM64 Windows can now cross-compile (with cl or clang-cl),</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/windows-arm64-support-for-cmake-projects-in-visual-studio/">Windows ARM64 support for CMake projects in Visual Studio</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog">C++ Team Blog</a>.</p>

<p>In Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9 Preview 3 we have continued to improve the C++ backend with new features, new and improved optimizations, build throughput improvements, and better security. Here is a brief list of improvements for you to review. </p> <p>Address Sanitizer: The IDE integration for ASan-reported exceptions (vcasan.lib) now handles the complete collection of exceptions ASan can report.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/msvc-backend-updates-in-visual-studio-2019-version-16-9-preview-3/">MSVC Backend Updates in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9 Preview 3</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog">C++ Team Blog</a>.</p>

<p>In the previous blog post I shared how template specialization and template instantiation are processed in the MSVC compiler. We will now look at some examples from real-world code bases to show some ways to reduce the number of them.<br> Example 1<br> This example is extracted from our own MSVC compiler code base.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/build-throughput-series-more-efficient-template-metaprogramming/">Build Throughput Series: More Efficient Template Metaprogramming</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog">C++ Team Blog</a>.</p>

<p>Today we are excited to share with you the plan for Entity Framework Core 6.0.</p> <p>This plan brings together input from many stakeholders and outlines where and how we intend to invest for the Entity Framework (EF Core) 6.0 release.<br> This plan is not set-in-stone and will evolve as we work on the release based on what we learn.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/the-plan-for-entity-framework-core-6-0/">The Plan for Entity Framework Core 6.0</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet">.NET Blog</a>.</p>

<p>Our team released native support for C++ with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) in Visual Studio in 2019. “Native support” means that all commands are executed locally instead of over a SSH connection. Since then, WSL2 has been announced and we’ve received questions about our support for WSL2 in Visual Studio.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/c-with-visual-studio-and-wsl2/">C++ with Visual Studio and WSL2</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog">C++ Team Blog</a>.</p>

<p>Template metaprogramming is popular and seen in many code bases. However, it often contributes to long compile times. When investigating build throughput improvement opportunities in large codebases, our finding is that more than one million template specializations and template instantiations is quite common and often provides optimization opportunities for significant improvement.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/build-throughput-series-template-metaprogramming-fundamentals/">Build Throughput Series: Template Metaprogramming Fundamentals</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog">C++ Team Blog</a>.</p>

<p>Building upon the diagnostics improvements we introduced in .NET Core 3.0, we’ve been hard at work further improving this space. I’m excited to introduce the next wave of diagnostics improvements.<br> Diagnostics tool are available without the .NET SDK<br> Until recently, the .NET diagnostics suite of tools was available only as .NET SDK global tools.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/diagnostics-improvements-in-net-5/">Diagnostics improvements in .NET 5</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet">.NET Blog</a>.</p>

<p>As I’ve helped customers port .NET Framework apps to .NET Core 3.1 and .NET 5, one question that has come up several times is the question of what to do about System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.RealProxy usage. Customers using the API are concerned because they know that remoting is not supported on .NET Core.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/migrating-realproxy-usage-to-dispatchproxy/">Migrating RealProxy Usage to DispatchProxy</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet">.NET Blog</a>.</p>

<p>As .NET Core has evolved, the WCF team has worked to expand support for WCF client scenarios on .NET Standard and .NET Core. Until recently, one of the gaps developers faced when building WCF clients for .NET Core was the lack of WSFederationHttpBinding and WS2007FederationHttpBinding.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/wsfederationhttpbinding-in-net-standard-wcf/">WSFederationHttpBinding in .NET Standard</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet">.NET Blog</a>.</p>

<p>We made improvements to C++ link time earlier in Visual Studio 2019, and we have more improvements to tell you about. As of version 16.7, we measure up to 5X improvement in some incremental linking and debugging scenarios and up to a 1.5X speedup in full linking.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/faster-c-iteration-builds/">Faster C++ Iteration Builds</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog">C++ Team Blog</a>.</p>
