Creating a Pseudo Code and Diagram from C# Program

Question

I have developed an application which is used to parse user utterances for the extraction of relevant information stored in the database.

The developed application has been purely developed using C# and consists of few functions, procedures etc.

I have been asked to produce Pseudo Code and Pseudo diagram for it to be used in the report for others to understand the flow of the developed application.

I am currently looking for a tool or software, which can help in producing above (especially Pseudo Code), as at the minute it seems a huge exploration of the code.

The type of code I am having to create of developed is as follow:

Many thanks for your help.

Answer 1

If you can afford to buy it, I recommend AthTek's flowchart to code. Its got a nice UI and its easy to use and it will generate pseudo code for a variety of languages, including C#, based on the flowchart.

Another good one, especially if you would like to have Visual Studio integration is Code Rocket. It integrates directly within Visual Studio and you can edit your flowchart or your pseudocode and both views stay in sync. It is great and its a little cheaper then AthTek!

If you need something free, try out DRAKON Editor. It's interface is not as intuitive as AthTek's software and it has a little more of a steeper learning curve and it does require ActiveTcl to use, but it is free! Here is a PDF Tutorial to get you up and going with C# using DRAKON Editor.

Answer 2

Its possible you could reverse engineer this project to get the pseudo code generator that you are looking for.

Answer 3

I would recommend NClass for generating diagrams. It is a free tool that generates UML diagrams. I do not know of any programs for automatically generating pseudocode though.
