What is a difference between VS-MDG plugins?
« on: April 02, 2012, 10:20:11 pm »
There are three MDG add-ins for EA and MS Visual Studio integration:
  • VSIntegrate.exe - Visual Studio Integration (available under Downloads/MDG Add-ins/MDG Integration/Visual Studio);
  • VSBridge.exe - Visual Studio .NET MDG Link (available under Downloads/MDG Add-ins/MDG LINK/Visual Studio .NET);
  • VS_Link_Beta_2_45.exe - Visual Studio .NET MDG Link (available to download from here)
What is a difference between? Is there a matrix comparision of these add-ins available?

Thx  :)

It's actually really simple.

MDG Link allows linking a package in EA to a project in Visual Studio.
MDG Integration does that plus putting EA diagrams and project browser inside Visual Studio.

The third thing is a beta version of link, it probably fixes some bugs but in terms of what it's designed to do, it's going to remain pretty constant.
