When developing C# applications in VS.NET, you get intellisense descriptions
for all methods in the .NET class libraries. I've created my own .NET
assembly and included /// C# documentation of all my methods, classes, etc..
The intellisense works great when this .NET assembly project is included in
the solution I'm working on. However, if I just make a reference to the
..dll file instead of including the 'project', the comments/descriptions of
methods, classes, etc., don't show up.
How can I get these comments to show up in intellisense when other
developers use my assembly?
Thanks in advance!

You need to make a reference to the project not the dll.

Interesting. Is there any other way to do it? That seems rather limiting.
For example, if I built a .DLL and wanted to share it with you, but didn't
want you to see the original source code, I'd certainly want you to be able
to have intellisense or you'd never ever use it ...
Comments? Thanks again.

Try copying the documentation XML into the same folder as your assembly.
