Details: Improvements in this Release

Visual Studio 2010 SP1 includes an update to the Microsoft .NET Framework 4. For more information about the update, read the Microsoft Knowledge Base article 2468871 Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 4.

Debugging Improvements

Visual Studio 2010 SP1 adds the following improvements:

Improvements when mini dump files and debugging mini dump files are opened.
Improvements to reduce hangs when attaching a process.
Reliability improvements in message passing interface (MPI) debugging.
Thread slipping improvements during function evaluation.

MFC-based GPU-accelerated Graphics and Animations

Visual Studio 2010 SP1 enables the following two technologies for MFC:

Direct2D, a hardware-accelerated, immediate-mode, 2-D graphics API that provides high performance and high-quality rendering for 2-D geometry, bitmaps, and text. For more information, read the Direct2D article.
Windows Animation Manager, which enables rich animation of user interface elements. For more information, visit Windows Animation Manager.You can take advantage of these two technologies without breaking the MFC programming model. Additionally, you can find demos in the following directory:drive:</strong>Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 10.0Samples1033VC2010SP1Samples.zipFor more information about the technology improvements in Visual Studio 2010 SP1, see MFC Additions for Visual Studio 2010 SP1.

New AMD and Intel instruction Set Support

Visual Studio 2010 SP1 adds intrinsic functions or intrinsics to enable the extensions on the AMD and Intel new microprocessors that will be released next year. The intrinsic functions allow for highly efficient computing without the overhead of a function call. For more information about the intrinsics function, see the Compiler Intrinsics article.For more information about the extensions, visit the Intel AVX third-party website.

SQL Updates

Data-Tier Application Project:

Style IntelliSense

Lets you easily modify styles that you already have in XAML. Now you get IntelliSense for properties and their values in a style that is based on the TargetType.

Data Source Selector

Lets you easily select and modify the data source information directly from the design surface.

Advanced Grid Commands

Lets you easily add, remove, and reorder grid rows and columns.

New Thickness Editor

Lets you bulk edit specific items such as margins or padding on multiple controls.

Sample Data Support

Lets you add sample data to see your item templates and bindings light up at design time. Not only does this make hooking up data bindings easier through the Data Binding Picker, it also means that you can design size-to-content and auto layouts much more smoothly. Also, the design time data will flow cleanly between Visual Studio and Expression Blend.

Increased Stability

Many stability improvements were made to Visual Studio 2010 SP1. For more information, visit the Final Release of Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010 blog post.

Installation Can Cause the Installed Update List to Erroneously List Hotfixes

Issue:
Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1 can cause several entries to be created in the Installed Updates list. The entries are labeled “Hotfix for Visual C++ Standard 2010 Beta 1” along with a KB number. Microsoft has confirmed that no Beta fixes were installed with Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1, and that the fix for each of the hotfixes listed was included in Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1.
Workaround:
There is no workaround for this issue. No 'Beta 1' hotfixes are installed on your system. You cannot uninstall the updates or remove the entries from the Installed Updates list because no files are actually installed on your system.

Known Issues with Using Microsoft Update

Issue:
When you install this service pack, the installation process may continue and finish successfully if you try to stop the installation. This issue may occur when the installation process is over half complete.If you start the installation process by selecting the 'Download updates but let me choose whether to install them' option, and then select the 'install update then shutdown' option, the service pack installation may fail. After the computer restarts, you will be offered this service pack again, and installation will complete successfully.If you uninstall the service pack from a non-English version of Visual Studio 2010Ultimate, Visual Studio 2010 Premium, or Visual Studio 2010Professional users, you will be offered to install the service pack again. However, the installation process will fail because components of this service pack are in an unexpected state. To successfully reinstall this service pack, follow these steps:
Workaround:
1. Start Visual Studio setup in Maintenance Mode from the Programs and Features item in Control Panel, or by running Setup.exe.
2. Select Add or Remove Features.
3. Select Microsoft Office Developer Tools, and then click Update. When the setup is complete, reinstall the service pack.
