.net - How to Get Recursive List of Dependencies -



.net - How to Get Recursive List of Dependencies -

starting single assembly, given recursive list of assembly dependencies. want dependency determined assembly manifest of each assembly. in other words, don't want have assembly dependency omitted list simply because "not called" or "not used."

i tried using visual studio ultimate 2012 "architecture->generate dependency graph". diagram presents not recursively show external dependencies , not meet need. started 14 day trial of ndepend now. not show me recursive graph of dependencies.

it may either visual studio or ndepend might have shown me recursive dependencies, if each of recursive assemblies referenced code. again, i'm not asking if there execution path links dependencies together, want know manifest each assembly declares dependencies.

is there alternative i'm missing in either visual studio or ndepend?

it nice filter dependencies gac assemblies omitted recursion , list.

you can such list, first right click assembly , inquire assemblies utilize (directly or indirectly).

a code query shown lists assemblies used (recursively) depth of usage.

conveniently, can export these assemblies dependency graph , improve understading of code structure:

in other words, don't want have assembly dependency omitted list simply because "not called" or "not used.

as far understand particular point not satisfied. ndepend takes business relationship of dependency between , b if type of using type of b (or vice-versa).
