Quick code migration results into VS2010: zero issues!

While traveling and not much to do while sitting in a hotel room waiting raining to cease, I had the chance to test migration of one of my custom .NET applications into Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 4.0 RTM.

For instance, this blog is written with a custom WinForms application, built with Visual Studio 2005 originally, but migrated first to 2008 and now to Visual Studio 2010. The application contains quite a lot of XML stuff, usual user interface stuff, Word integration, some LINQ, and a custom FTP and SSH uploader. All in all, it's a quite simple application, but still uses many different technologies.

Migrating a VS2008 solution to VS2010 was very convenient, as it should. But of course, the solution migration should always succeed. What's much more interesting is to see how building the application works. In my case, there were zero issues. That's very good news indeed!
