Thankfully, that has been remedied in this release. The wizards are still there, but they are unobtrusive and better integrated with the programming tools. For instance, the Class Wizard is no longer the nightmare of modal dialogs it once was. Instead, most of the wizard functions have been implemented on a toolbar that is part of the programmer's editor. This feature, dubbed a wizard bar, makes tasks like overriding member functions, defining new member functions, or defining member variables in a class simple and intuitive operations.
Integration seems to be the theme that drove the changes to the Developer Studio.
Instead of juggling screen real estate between the class browser, code editor, online documentation, and resource editors, the tools all fit together as dockable windows. You assign each component its own part of the screen once, and then use splitter bars to resize as needed. The Developer Studio is integrated with Microsoft's Fortran Powerstation, Visual Test, and Developer Network products. You don't have to escape to the program manager to look up the latest knowledge-base article from your MSDN subscription. Developer Studio's project workspaces take over some Class Wizard functionality present in previous versions of the product.
