The Visual Studio 2010 RC has been released and is available for download at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/dd582936.aspx.

Visual Studio 2010 includes libraries and tools to help developers be more productive at writing parallel and concurrent applications. For native C++ developers this includes the Parallel Pattern Library (PPL) which includes task parallelism constructs, thread-safe containers and synchronization primitive, the Asynchronous Agents Library an actor based programming model base on asynchronous message passing and the underlying Concurrency Runtime (ConcRT).

This Code Gallery project includes example applications, short samples and utilities that demonstrate the native Parallel Libraries and further enhance the library with useful (but unsupported) extra functionality.

For discussion of PPL, the Agents Library, ConcRT or these samples please visit our native forums at: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/parallelcppnative/threads
