Enhancing Software Development with Architecture and Visualization Tools in Visual Studio 2010

In this talk, discover the architecture and visualization tools in Visual Studio 2010 designed to tackle the complexities of software development. Learn why these tools were built, who they cater to, and what capabilities they offer developers and architects. Key features include Architecture Explorer, Sequence Diagram Generation, and UML designers, which aid in understanding code, domain relationships, and maintaining control over projects. Our goal is to enhance shared understanding among team members and provide practical solutions for navigating software complexity.

  2. By the End of this Talk, you will… • Understand the following about the Architecture and Visualization tools in Visual Studio 2010: • Why we build it • Who we built it for • What it can do

  3. The Why:Complexity remains a Serious Problem • Complexity is found everywhere: • In Code, Requirements, Organizational politics • ( the list goes on and on… ) • Visual Studio 2010 attacks these problems head on by Increasing… • …A shared understanding between team members • …The understanding of existing system • … the ability to gain and maintain control

  4. The Who:Focused on Developers and Architects • Developers who are… • …trying to understand existing code • …focused on the “right fix” • Architects who are… • …trying to understand the Domain and how it relates to implementation • …“Solution” or “Application” Architect on the team

  5. The What:Product Capabilities • “Understand The Code” • Architecture Explorer • Sequence Diagram Generation • DGML Graphs and “Standard” Graphs • “Maintain Control” • Layer Diagram & Custom MSBuild Tasks • Work Item Integration • “Understand The Domain” • UML 2.x Designers • Modeling Project & Explorer • Extensibility

  6. “Understand The Code” demo

  7. "Understand The Code"Demo Summary • Architecture Explorer • Sequence Diagram Generation • DGML Graphs and “Standard” Graphs

  8. “Maintain Control” demo

  9. "Maintain Control"Demo Summary • Layer Diagram and Validation • Work Item Integration

  10. “Understand The Domain” demo

  11. "Understand The Domain"Demo Summary • UML Designers • Use Case, Class, Component, Activity, Sequence • UML Modeling Project • UML Model Explorer

  12. Extensibility demo

  13. ExtensibilityDemo Summary • Extensible in a number of areas • Graph Model • UML Diagrams • Command, Menuing, and Validation

  14. In Summary… • We’ve built Visual Studio 2010 to attack complexity deep in the heart of Software Development • UML, DSL, and pragmatic feature set is the approach • Developers and Architects are our focus
