Take a look at ModelMaker www.modelmakertools.com , it is a two-way UML/C#
or Delphi CASE tool that integrates into the the Visual Studio IDE. Not only
can you visualise code into UML, you can also edit the diagrams and see the
changes in your code (or vice versa) What is more, ModelMaker does not rely
on completely compilable code, as its OO model is stored independently, with
both the code and the diagrams being different views of the same underlying
model.

Probably because they decided that properly implementing the UML
standard was too much work...

Using Namespace in Visual Studio 2005

by: Programatix | last post by:

Hi, Normally, I would use Namespace for all the window forms I created. With VS 2005, the code generated by the designer is hidden using partial keyword. The question is, is there an efficient way to add any window forms created into a namespace? Currently, I enclose the class for .vb and .designer.vb inside a namespace manually.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
