dotTrace 3.1 released

On this beautiful spring day, JetBrains announces dotTrace 3.1 — the new minor release of the simple and super-fast profiling tool for .NET developers!

We keep working on a major upgrade that will represent a big step in terms of functionality and scalability, but as an intermediate release, we'd like to introduce dotTrace 3.1. The highlights of this new version include:

  • Support for Visual Studio 2008 and .NET Framework 3.x. You can now launch dotTrace from Visual Studio 2008 and profile solutions running under latest versions of .NET Framework
  • Support for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008
  • Support for web-based JetBrains License Server, a utility that serves as a central source of license tickets and distributes them between workstations seamlessly
  • A new floating license that any member of your development team can use
  • Stability and performance improvements

As usual, you can download a 10-day evaluation copy. Current dotTrace 3.0 customers can upgrade for free.

For more details on changes in dotTrace 3.1 as compared to 3.0, see Release Notes.
