Visual Studio 2012 and .NET 4.5 Release Candidates are out!

Posted: (EET/GMT+2)

 

Good news: Microsoft has just yesterday made available the newest pre-release version of Visual Studio 2012, codename "Visual Studio 11". At the same time (as been the tradition since the early days of .NET), a new version of .NET Framework also became available at the same time.

This time, we're already at Release Candidate (RC) stage, so things are pretty final at this point. I'm looking forward to upgrade my Windows 8 Metro applications from beta to this version, let's see what happens.

In the meantime, here's the download link to all things Visual Studio 2012: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/11/en-us/download. You can also grab the latest bits from MSDN.
