How to set the Description of a property in a custom server control

altaafhussein

Hi, I have created a custom Server Control and I want to add a description to the properties and events that the control holds. I have looked over the Internet and came up with the following...

Code:
<Description("Gets/Set somthing for the property")>_
public property Somthing() as Boolean
Get
end get
Set
end set
End property

Unfortunately this does not seem to work in visual studio .net 2008.

I am not sure if i am missing somthing off can anyone help

Thanks in advanvce

Here's a working one from live code that I use (though it is C#)
It has description as well as several other properties

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

         [Category("CustomValues"),

        Browsable(true),

        ReadOnly(false),

        Bindable(false),

        DefaultValue(5000), /* DefaultValue is only for Designer. Does not actually set value of property.*/

        DesignOnly(false),

        Description("UDP port for the client")]

        public int ClientPort

        {

            get { return (int)nudListeningPort.Value; }

            set { nudListeningPort.Value = (decimal)value; }

        }
