Windows, Web eyed in MS tools upgrade

Microsoft with a planned upgrade to its Visual Studio Express products will center on Windows and Web development as well as on data-driven application development.

Visual Studio Express products are for neophyte developers. In his blog on Saturday, S. "Soma" Somasegar, corporate vice president of the Microsoft developer division, said the Visual Studio 2008 editions of Express will leverage Windows Presentation Foundation graphical capabilities. Also, a redesigned Web page designer is featured in Visual Web Developer Express 2008, with capabilities for building HTML and AJAX-based Web sites.

Debugging also has been improved in Web Developer.

Somasegar's blog can be accessed by clicking on this link. Visual Studio 2008 Express products are expected to ship later this year.
