Project Analyzer Help - System requirements

Project Analyzer system requirements

Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4 (SP3 or later), 2000, XP, 2003 or Vista.
Either the VB6 run-time library package or Visual Basic 6.0 installed. If you have trouble running Project Analyzer, please visit our web site to download the run-times.
Visual Studio .NET or the .NET framework is not required.
Windows 95 has limited support for DLL file analysis unless Imagehlp.dll is installed. Later Windows versions include the file by default.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 is required for viewing .mht reports.
For reading the documentation you also need Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 (or later) and Adobe Acrobat 4.0 (or later).

Supported languages and projects

Project Analyzer v8 is designed to work on regular Visual Basic projects regardless of code size or coding style. It analyzes the following types of systems:

Visual Basic 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 and 6.0

Visual Basic .NET 2002, 2003 and 2005

ASP.NET solutions are supported in that their .vb files (codebehind classes) are analyzed. However, the the web content files .aspx, .ascx etc. are not analyzed.

Office VBA projects may be analyzed with the help of VBA Plug, which requires a separate license.

Unofficially supported project types

The following project types are not officially supported. However, Project Analyzer seems to work with them. We don't guarantee the accuracy of the results, so use with care.

eVB projects (.ebp) can be analyzed. Project Analyzer was not designed for eVB, but it seems to work with it.
VB.NET Compact Framework projects (.vbdproj) are supported to the extent they resemble normal VB.NET .vbproj projects. There are no special Compact Framework analysis features. Project Analyzer was not designed for Smart Device Applications / Compact Framework projects, but it seems to work with them.
VSTO projects are not supported, but they may open. Analysis is inaccurate or incomplete.
Non-standard project files are not supported. This means projects made with 3rd-party tools (other than the respective Microsoft Visual Basic or Visual Studio development environment). Files written by 3rd-party tools may be slightly different from those saved by VB/Visual Studio. Depending on what the differences are, you might be able to analyze them — or not.

Unsupported code

Project Analyzer does not work on any VBScript or ASP code, C#, QuickBASIC or any other language. ASP.NET: see above.

Required files

The following files are required for Project Analyzer to run. If you have Visual Basic 6.0 installed, these files are already installed on your computer. If you don't have the run-times, download and install the run-time library package. You may already have downloaded it with Project Analyzer. Run the library setup program to install the required run-times correctly.

Enterprise Diagrams additionally requires the following files in your Project Analyzer directory. They are included with the program download.

strtch.dll          53,248  21/02/05  21:11 v1.0.0.1     Required in Win95/98/ME/NT only.
EntDiag1.vst                                             Required for Visio export only.

DLL file analysis additionally requires ImageHlp.dll. The file is included in Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP/2003, but it is missing in Windows 95. The file is a free download from Microsoft.

VBA Plug additionally requires a compatible Microsoft Office version installed on the same computer.

If you have trouble with some run-time library, put it in your Windows\System32 directory and register it with regsvr32.exe. Run as Administrator if necessary.

CheckLib

CheckLib is a little utility verifies that the required run-time files have been correctly installed on your computer. You can find it in your Project Analyzer directory. Double-click checklib.exe to run it. CheckLib locates the required files on your computer and checks to see whether the available version is the same as or higher than the required version. If any problems are found, it will suggest what to do next.

Windows Vista

User Account Control in Windows Vista may prevent Enterprise Diagrams and file associations from functioning correctly. To configure these features, run Config.exe in your Project Analyzer directory.

Mouse wheel support

The mouse wheel is supported on Windows 98/NT and later, but not on Windows 95.
