VS 2012 "Language Style" feature?

Question

There is supposedly a new "Language Style" feature available:

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/11442.quick-tour-of-visual-studio-2012.aspx

It is supposed to allow the developer to translate between VB and C# and vice versa within Visual Studio 2012. 

Does anybody know how to use that feature? I can't seem to find any documentation on it.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Hi,

Would you look at this link: http://www.ianquigley.com/A75_New_features_of_VS2012.html

hope it helps.

Thanks

Answer 2

So I assume from the comments to http://www.ianquigley.com/A75_New_features_of_VS2012.html that it is a joke? If so, it is a joke that has spread to various other sites including Microsoft's Technet.

If it is not a joke, then there are no descriptions anywhere that I can find on how to use the features.

Answer 3

Well I also didn't find any thing about Language styles but I think that VS2012 languages' styles would be simpler and better , i.e their readability will be enhanced. Thats all

Answer 4

It was a joke.  The original poster wasn't even a MS employee so I don't know why it appeared on TechNet.  Nor do I know the justification for the post.

The "Language Style" feature is already available in other tools.  You can use Reflector or similar tool to decompile back to any language you want (that is supported).
