Is there any way to display a solution's call tree in the IDE

Thanks,

Call Tree?

    Ray,

    The call browser is currently only available in C++ projects (C# and VB do not populate it).  It's a feature several people have requested and we're tracking for a future version of the product.  Would it meet your needs the way it is designed currently assuming that C# started populating it

    I second all of that.

    The 'call browser' is on the right track. I've added to my View menu but can't get it to do anything. I can bring up the window but can't seem to populate it. I tried entering in method names and fully qualified method names for the search criteria and nothing appears and I receive no errors. How do I wire the command into the UI

    Thanks,
    Ray

    It was a little bit of a disappointment not to see this as one of the new C# features in VS2005. Are there any current plans to make it available in C#, VB etc

    Haven't seen that since VS6.  Closest thing I could find is right-click "Find All References".

    What are the latest plans for making this available with C# and VB I greatly appreciate this feature under C/C++ and I miss it while working in C#.

    This would be Fantastic!

    The Debug menu only appears while you're debugging.

    I'm not looking for a stack. I'm looking for a tree. A Call Tree is a static (non-runtime) tree which shows the calling structure of a program. It shows every call made by every routine in a tree format.

    Unlike a call stack, which is linear, a call tree is two dimentional and allows you to determine all the calls a method makes and all the methods that a call a method.

    It would be a good start.

    I would expect to see the call commmands when right clicking on a method in the class view in parrallel with find all references.

    It would also be nice to be able to find all methods which are NOT called within an assembly/project. This would be a helpful refactoring tool when jerking code around or pruning it. This can be manually done today with "find all references" but it should be automated.

    It would be nice to see a graphical repesentation of the graph similar to the object diagrams to get a quick overview of program structure and dependencies as well. I
