A tool or plugin to retrieve a class and all its dependencies from a VS project

Question

I have a very large project with a lot of files. I need to extract only a few classes in a separate DLL, but the problem is that classes have many dependencies on other files. Trying to do this manually, I have already spent several hours, and there are still endless errors related to missing files. Is there any solution to automate this process?

Answer 1

I don’t know a tool that will automate the whole process, but you can use NDepend to help you.

Starting with the class you want to retrieve, NDepend can generate a list telling you about class dependencies and class dependencies, etc.
