Code Map Missing Visual Studio

Question

We just switched over to VS 2013 and I heard that you're supposed to be able to generate code maps for your entire application. Awesome feature indeed, that could get new developers on our project up to speed.

Watched a couple of tutorials, but when I tried to just right click on a method in the application, the 'Show on Code Map' context menu is missing. In fact, I can't find anything in VS that has anything to do with Code Maps.

My version: Visual Studio Premium 2013

I tried installing Modeling SDK for Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, but that didn't do anything.

Anyone got any ideas?

Answer 1

You need Visual Studio ULTIMATE to create Code Maps.

Answer 2

This has changed for Visual Studio 2015 and Visual Studio 2017:

• The Enterprise Edition allows creating code maps.
• The Community and Professional Editions can open diagrams generated in other Visual Studio editions in read-only mode.
