• 1 Take a look at Visual Studio Power Tools. It may have something for helping you to generate Sequence Diagram/Activity Diagram or so called "flow chart". – Afshar Commented Oct 20, 2010 at 7:02
• Get yourself Visual Paradigm for UML - it's great and is free for 30 days and you can check if it what you're looking for and decide for yourself. I bet it will suits you. – There is nothing we can do Commented Oct 20, 2010 at 7:46

The Visual Studio Learning Pack has a flowchart generator, but unfortunately, it only works with the 2008 editions.

What you probably actually want are called Sequence Diagrams. This functionality is built into VS 2010 Ultimate Edition.

You just right-click inside a method and select “Generate the sequence diagram” from the pop up menu.

• 4 I did not find Sequence diagram in professional edition, I think it is in Ultimate edition. – Sharique Commented Oct 20, 2010 at 7:15
• 1 Yes, it is in the UE, not Professional. In the future, it would be helpful if you specified which version you are using. – Paul McMillan Commented Oct 20, 2010 at 17:10
• I think it is available only for C# projects and not for C++ projects. – sabertooth1990 Commented Jul 11, 2014 at 6:39

ReSharper has a Call Tracking feature that can display incoming and outgoing calls sequenced in an interactive, graphical tree view.

It also has a similar feature for Value Tracking that displays data flows.
