Class Designer

Class Designer

Although the Class Designer isn't technically a Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team System designer, I thought it was worth adding to this reference section. This designer is a fully functional, visual design environment for the common language runtime. It lets you visualize the structure of classes and other types, and edit their source code. Changes made to the class diagram are immediately reflected in code, and changes made to the code immediately affect the appearance of the designer.

Here are the various components that can be modeled using the Class Designer:
