Code Maps in Visual Studio | C# Code Maps Getting Started

Code Maps in Visual Studio | C# Code Maps Getting Started
You can visualize dependencies across your code by creating a code map. Code maps help you see how the code fits together without reading through files and lines of code.
Visual C# or Visual Basic in a solution or assemblies (.dll or .exe)
Native or managed C or C++ code in Visual C++ projects, header files (.h or #include), or binaries
X++ projects and assemblies made from .NET modules for Microsoft Dynamics AX
To create a code map in Visual Studio, first install the Code Map and Live Dependency Validation components:
Open Visual Studio Installer. You can open it from the Windows Start menu, or within Visual Studio by selecting Tools Get Tools and Features.
Select the Individual components tab.
Scroll down to the Code tools section and select Code Map and Live Dependency Validation.

I'm using Visual Studio 2022 Pro and even enabling the two check-boxes the menu item: "show on code map" doesn't appear. I've read that it's available only for Enterprise edition

The video is in Visual Studio 2019 though

Thanks for addressing the fact that c-maps are only available in Pro/Enterprise editions.

[@hacked101]

No doubt

VS Code Maps works on small projects like the one you used in demo, but it just cannot scale on real world VS solution with dozens of projects. At work we use the NDepend Dependency Graph that works like a charm on our VS solution with 411 projects.

Okay

[@francoislepron2301]

Excellent. Thank you.

[@hacked101]
