I want to measure dependencies between classes - what's the best approach and tools to use?

I'm working in MS .Net

Text based information / reports are OK, but I'd prefer something visual.

Open source tool would be ideal.

ndepend is a tool you can use alt text

Or you can try Depender.

Thanks. ndepend looks good but is way out of my budget :(Still not sure if Depender is really what I'm after - I need to look at it a bit more.

This may not help (right now), but it looks like VS 2010 will have a dependency graph feature out of the box. Looks like it will do class, namespace, and assembly dependencies.

That might be sweet :)
