Silverlight 4 beta available

EA tool coming soon

For the past week I’ve been doing my bit towards a tool built to support Sparx Systems’ EA UML modelling product. The tool adds a URL protocol handler (Windows machines only!) that will open a design artifact in an EA repository.

Canonic Labs wrote the original code but for some reason didn’t complete/release it. Upon request they recently open sourced what they’d done and I jumped at the chance to finish it off. I can now have links to EA artificats from TFS, Fogbugz, e-mails, etc. without having to create an EA shortcut file each time.

Keep an eye on the project site for details of the upcoming beta.

Updated Filtered Debug Viewer tool posted

It’s been sat on the drive for ages so I thought I may as well let it go live. Check out the original post for the download link. If you have any issues let me know.
