Where to find the C# 5.0 language specifications in Visual Studio 2013?
Posted: (EET/GMT+2)
Visual Studio 2013 comes with the C# language version 5.0, which contains advancements especially in asynchronous programming with the async and await keywords, and so on. Now, from Visual Studio 2005 to 2012, the C# language specifications (a Word document with over 500 pages) have come together with the Visual Studio installation, usually in the folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC#\Specifications\1033".
However, along with Visual Studio 2013, this document doesn't come with the installation, and must be instead downloaded separately. To download the latest specs, visit this download page on the Microsoft Download Center.
