Created Issue: interface mapping/drawing

powerdude — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 21:36:50 GMT

if your code uses a lot of interfaces, the diagram stops at the call to the interface. It would be nice if the user could somehow map a concrete class to be used in place of an interface in order to get more complete diagrams.

Commented Issue: Run tool as a command line app

torial — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 16:43:27 GMT

Hi,

Is there any way of running this tool from the command line to analyse dlls and generate images for placement in a build report (I'm thinking a nightly build that ensures your documentation is up-to-date).

Thanks,

John
Comments: ** Comment from web user: torial **

When running the command line with these options: -s -a C3PO -t MainForm -o PNG -r , I get an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" exception.

Hi! It's great tool, it's nice to have simple and yet fully functional sight to part of the app's functionality. However, it would be nice to add some kind of filter that should allow or disallow drawing of some classes that takes space and they are not always needed. For example the calls to System.Object.ToString() or System,Collection.Generics.List.Add() often take lot of space by drawing the classes or instances (rectangles) and their lifelines, yet they aren't always needed. Maybe to add some inclusion/exclusion attributes that can be added in code or the objects and methods can be just tagged (selected) through context menus in your add-in. Al together - great job!

New Post: Reflector Add-In fails to load

santoshbenjamin — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 14:06:46 GMT

Hi, I've started using v011 of SequenceViz. I have reflector 5.1.3 and am running Vista SP1. I can add other add-ins into Reflector such as ClassView. However when i try to add SequenceViz it just says "Failed to load". Any ideas what may be going wrong?

Thanks

What is it that you find it difficult to install? If you are trying out an older version then please download the latest which is now using WPF instead of GraphViz.

Ben,

Thanks for noting the issue and posting about it here. I think it is valid to say that this is indeed an issue with the current code, since on the web you can find information about things like this as well. I have changed the code to only create the ContextMenu when it is needed (in the OnMouseRightButtonUp) and only created once by checking it with a boolean value.

Thanks again,
Meile

Just to update: I got this working by actually installing 3.5.

Now, I'd love to know why i can't (or how do I) create a sequence diagram that could be loaded into Visio for editing/trimming? Is that possible?

Absolutely love this tool though I have to say.

New Post: Versions

jh72i — Mon, 24 Nov 2008 17:56:57 GMT

Re-reading your replay. Yes, I want to use the tool in an environment that does not have 3.5 installed. Is there a compatible version for 3 or 2.5?

Thanks again

BenTaylor — Mon, 24 Nov 2008 17:43:47 GMT

Meile - SV is crashing my laptop when generating a particular sequence (after sucking 2.x gig of RAM). I think it is due to the large number of items in the sequence. I am unable to send you the assembly to test, due to copyright issues. However...

I have resolved this by excluding a load of types. However, I also did an optimization that you may want to copy (if it works for you). I noticed that the DiagramSequenceNode class was calling this.InitializeContextMenu(); in the Constructor. This meant it was creating loads of ContextMenu objects, even when they would never be used. I moved this call to DiagramSequenceNode.OnMouseRightButtonUp (i.e. to the point where it is needed) and things seemed to get noticeably better (not timed it, but seemed noticeably quicker).

Hi Ben,

I'm glad you like this tool. About the printing, in the latest source code, an issue that also targets this, has been solved already. A paginator class is being used to spread out the diagram over more pages if necessary. Also a print menu option has been added to the context menu. When this will be released is not sure at the moment.

The cross assembly feature is definitely available, but somewhat hidden. Within the config file of the application there is an appSettings tag 'IncludeAssemblyReferences' which is designed for this purpose. When set to True the tool will load any referenced assembly upon loading the selected one. Any sequence that involves methods from other assemblies will have these inside the Sequence diagram.

If this isn't working the way you would expect, then please drop us another line. Or create a new issue in the Issue Tracker. That way we may get to work on that.

thanks,
Meile
