[bonk]

Why can't the class designer of VS 2005 visualize the classes and the
class hierarchy in UML? What options do I have if I want to
automatically create a uml Diagramm of my c# classes in UML ?

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.

Hi,

Another options is Rational ClearCase, but I haven't hear if they support
2.0

cheers,

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