UModel® 2008 Enterprise Edition supports seamless integration with Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008, Microsoft's premier software development platform.

UModel® 2008 Enterprise Edition support for Visual Studio integration allows you to view and seamlessly switch between your UML software model and source-code editing windows in the same application development environment where you develop Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008 software projects.

Enabling UModel controls in the Visual Studio Tools menu lets you display all the UModel® 2008 diagram views, helper windows, menus, and toolbars inside Visual Studio as you develop your application.

This tight integration between UModel® 2008 Enterprise Edition and Visual Studio is especially helpful as your project progresses from preliminary plans to code generation in C# or Visual Basic .NET from your class diagrams and component diagrams.

Automatic, real-time synchronization between the UModel project and your source code lets you refer to and work in either the UML software model or the source code editor, confident that both display the up to date project status. Any change you make in one window is immediately reflected in the other.

UModel® 2008 Enterprise Edition offers an option in the right-click context menu for class diagrams to conveniently move from your UML model to the corresponding source code, and a similar selection in the source code editor menu to jumb back to your model.

To use UModel® 2008 and Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008 together, you must first download UModel® 2008 Enterprise Edition as well as Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008. (The Visual Studio IDE is not part of UModel® 2008 Enterprise Edition and must be installed separately.) After you have completed those installs, the final step is to install the UModel® 2008 Integration Package.
