Making use of XML Documents

Ostap Radkovskiy

Hi!

How can I make my source code xml documentation appear as tooltip for any
place where well commented code is used (and xml document is generated)?
I was going to achieve this by simply using XML Document features (setting
up XML Documentation file on projects properties screen) throughout the
code, but after the build tooltips still not available. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Ostap

Ostap,

Do you mean for projects where you add a reference to the build code?
If this is the case, then you have to add the XML document to the same
directory where the dll is, and have a name that is the same as the DLL,
except with the XML extension.

Hope this helps.
