Computer store news:

It seems that Windows developers are also complaining about Surface RT, even bigger than ordinary users.
Microsoft's official MSDN forum has been noisy since the release of Surface RT. Many developers who purchased Surface RT have been divided into 2 factions, supporting WinRT on the one hand (mostly .NETC# developers), and on the other hand Many people support Microsoft's open desktop API. In their words, it is more attractive than WinRT.

A lot of developers complain that they don't have anything to work with. It's impossible to work under Surface RT. These tools are basically desktop programs, and the related vendors have not followed up. Someone said "Surface RT is the money that lie to us developers" & rdquo; such words. In general, Win32 developers are not very interested in WinRT, they complain that the Metro program development mechanism is not mature, and even the RT system underlying structure has bugs. And many Win32 developers do not necessarily use Visual Studio, but may use third-party compilers, debuggers such as GCC, Borland, etc., and currently these compilers are very difficult to develop Metro programs under x86, not to mention Said to compile the native code under ARM. And Microsoft's current explicit desktop API restriction policy for Windows RT system has led to these third-party development tool vendors not relying on Windows that follows ARM architecture, resulting in a large number of third-party compilers and people accustomed to traditional Win32 development. There is no way to start, and many of these people are often experienced Windows developers. There are also many older Win32 developers who say that Microsoft is ignoring their youth. They have spent 10 years learning Win32, and then Microsoft has a new platform and API called Windows to let them abandon the previously learned Win32 technology and turn to a group of young people. People create the platform of “Youth Vitality”, which makes them difficult to change. And Dan Ruder, a Microsoft employee on the MSDN forum, said that many of the APIs of Windows RT are just "all the names are implemented." Microsoft is not even ready for ARM's Windows RT driver development package, which means Windows RT. The Win32 API is also incomplete, and it also says that under the RT system, the WinRT API is directly related to the system core services, rather than the WinRT under x86 will be hybridized to Win32 or packaged on Win32. And many Win32 developers are also complaining about the way the Windows Store is audited. There are so few developers who have implemented the Metro program (such as x86 only) in a wonderful way, but they are clearly told that they cannot post to Windows Store. In general, because of the huge group of Windows developers, there are a lot of people who don't like to follow the rules, and it is this messy group that has created countless Windows programs, just like how Visual Basic 6.0 is still a lot. The reason for people use, perhaps Microsoft's perfect and open Windows RT desktop API can allow a large number of large developers to flood into.
