C# 2.0 Spec Released

Posted by michael on from the most-anticipated-new-language-of-the-week dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft released the design specifications document for C# 2.0 (codenamed 'Whidbey') to be released early next year. New features of the language include generics similar to those found in Eiffel and Ada, anonymous methods similar to lambda functions in Lisp, iterators, and partial types."

    Seems like a pretty limited spec.

    All it says is:
    Plugger: No approperiate application for type application/msword found!

    whatever...

    It's really C-Hash.
