Enterprise Library Released

As pointed out by Roy Osherove, the new Enterprise Library for .net has been released. It basically encapsulated the application blocks that were previously released separately:

  • Caching Application Block
  • Configuration Application Block
  • Data Access Application Block
  • Cryptography Application Block
  • Exception Handling Application Block
  • Logging and Instrumentation Application Block
  • Security Application Block

It may only be a 'stopgap' until the launch of .net v2, but I for one am planning to make use of it. I've been making use of four of the blocks, and have been looking forward to an update that fixes many of the known issues. So I'll let you know how I get on with it.

You can download it from MSDN.
