Installation

You can install this version of DsmSuite by unzipping DsmSuite.zip in a directory of your choice (e.g. \Program Files). This will create a directory DsmSuite with the programs inside.

Invocation

The viewer is invoked by DsmViewer (instead of DsmSuite.DsmViewer.View).

Building

The project can be build the usual way in Visual Studio. After it builds successfully, running publish.bat will create a distribution directory in Publish\DsmSuite. dsmanalyzer.xml contains dsm analyzer settings that use the distribution directory.

Implementation notes

Actions

Actions are things the user does with the model that are saved as part of the model.

The flow of control when executing an action is as follows:

• MainViewModel has private methods FooExecute and optionally FooCanExecute. It also has a ICommand FooCommand, which the MainViewModel constructor sets to RelayCommand(FooExecute, FooCanExecute).
• FooCommand can be bound in the view to a button or a menu.
• The FooExecute method calls the IApplication.Foo method with the necessary parameters. This method instantiates a FooAction object and passes it to ActionManager.Execute.

To add a new action, do the following:

• Define a constant in ActionType.
• Implement a new IAction. This should only use methods of the model, not of the application.
• Add the new ActionType to ActionStore.RegisterActionTypes.
• Add a FooCommand etc. as described above.
