Intellisense not picking up summary tag info in other lib

Joe
I have the XML Documentation File property set to the name of my library.
The file seems to build correctly and appears in the Debug folder of that
library. When I add that library project as a reference to another
application, the XML gets put in the debug file of the 2nd application but
doesn't show up as a intellisense tooltip it only displays in the object
inspector.

Any thoughts?

Hi Joe,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From
your description, I understand that you need your comments in the class
library to be shown in intellisense. If there is any misunderstandin g,
please feel free to let me know.

As far as I know if you need the intellisense to be displayed, you have to
redistribute the comment .xml file together with your class library. Also
they have to be the same in file name. For example, if we have
ClassLibrary1.d ll, we should have ClassLibrary1.x ml for comments file. If
we put these to files in the same folder and add reference to that
assembly, the comments will be shown in intellisense.

Please check the following link for more information:

I've written a DLL assembly in C#. I've built the DLL, and reference it from other projects. The assembly contains a single file, containing a single abstract class. This class contains loads of static "helper" methods, as well as a load of nested abstract classes that also contain static "helper" methods. This set up allows me to write code like the following FormMethods.BusinessObjectEvents.HandleIsEditChanged()...

I have a few variables that I want declared as global. To accomplish this, I made the files globals.h and globals.cpp. In globals.h I have the declarations for the structs, and one variable actually defined. It is defined w/ the extern keyword. Then, in globals.cpp I actually define that extern variable. If my understanding of this is correct, then by any file that needs access to this variable simply needs to include globals.h...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents.
