representative diagram of .net framework Bace class library for better understanding of Types and Members Cooperations

Question

is it possible to get any representative diagram(such as object diagram or class diagram) from .net types of a name space . the diagram could represent the relations and dependecies between the .net types and members. and we could understand better the structure of portion of a namespace. instead of looking at Msdn texts . for example i like to know the organization of system.configuration namespace important members. thanks

Answer 1

Microsoft has published (non-UML) overviews of the BCL in the past (have a hunt around on http://download.microsoft.com), but those have always been very high level.

In practice the number of types that the BCL defines (let alone the whole framework) is in the thousands and therefore beyond anything more detailed in a single diagram.
