Live from TechED day 2

Today was my first day this week in the Ask the experts (ATE) booth at TechED. I was working together with Matt Gibbs form the ASP.Net team. He will hold a session about the MVC Framework on Friday so today I asked him several questions about the MVC Framework and also about ASP.Net 4.0. We had also a discussion about the Dynamic controls which will automatically bind dynamic data bound control against a Data source where LINQ to SQL will be used. So we can out from a database easy create a data driven web application. In the future the Dynamic Controls will work against ADO.Net Entity Framework also. I’m not a big fan of the Dynamic Controls; I don’t like to have magic in my code. I will talk to Shanku Niyogi (who is working in the Dynamic control team) tomorrow about the Dynamic Controls when we will work together.
I met Pablo Castro from the ADO.Net team and I tried to convince him to remove the “IPOCO” interface so oue entities doesn’t need to implement the interface or inherit a base class to work with the ADO.Net Entity Framework. He was so determined and he will not remove it. It was also sad to hear that they will not release a “model-first” approached with the first version of ADO.Net Entity Framework that I thought they should do. In the next version we can probably create a model and then generate a data source from the model (That is something I don’t like).
There are a lot of talk about features form Microsoft the work like a code-generator everything to create scaffolds and get started quickly with some tweak support etc.
Today I met several people around Europe, some of my blog readers, some other MVPs and developers and speakers etc. I have also met a lot of people from Sweden and had the chance to eat dinner and spend some time with them.
Today I’m going to the Influence party too meet other MVPs and peoples from Microsoft etc. It will be really nice party with a lot of fun I hope.
If you want to read more about the time here at TechED I can suggest you to read my collogue Patrik Löwendahls blog.
