Integration with Visual Studio .Net
« on: July 07, 2006, 02:51:14 am »
We've just started evaluating EA  and we are unsure on how to best integrate it with VS Net (2003 or 2005).

Usually our projects consist of an sln. file with a dozen or so projects (one Windows application and a lot of dll projects). We do not need code generation (most of our code is generating using an XML/XSL mechanism), but we would like to reverse engineer our solution and then draw class diagrams for documentation.

What would be the best way to do this?

Do we use Import Binary Module to import all the referenced assemblies, and then use Import C# File to import all our classes?

Or do we use EAVS Bridge, connect to a project, import it, then disconnect, connect to the next project a.s.o.? It looks like EAVS Bridge does not synchronize when a project is reverse engineered a second time (at least it doesn't care if a class has been removed from code).

Isn't there a way to import a complete solution with all referenced assemblies in one go?
