Visual Studio and Modeling

Hi ,

Has any one come across Visual Studio 2005 's class syncronization's issues ?

basically it looks like VSTS doesn't support generation of sequential diagrams.

For requirements gathering and UML Modeling, If I have to make a choice

btw Visual Use Case and Enterprise Architect then which is sufficent enough to integrate with VSTS 2005 and / or does allow to represent the requirements and allow to do the UML for the class and sequence diagram generation.

Hi Paresh,

If i recall correctly, I wrote to you once (perhaps in another forum) that VS 2005's class designer is connected directly to the code, meaning you cannot model a class and then decide to synchronize it (further more, if you look at the .cd file that is created - you'll see it only includes info about the position of the class in the diargram, which means all the class info is auto-generated in the .cs/.vb file).

BTW, I also wrote to you once that VS 2005's class designer is not based on UML !

As for other tool (UML supported) that can work in VS, I recomment Sparx Enterprise Architect

Best of luck,

Ido.
