Referencing specific method overloads in a <see> tag

[Alex VanderWoude]

I am using the XML documentation feature of VS.NET. Several of my classes
have overloaded methods. I would like to create a <see> tag that refers to
a specific overload (as opposed to the general overview of them all). How
can I do this?

For example, imagine that there are two overloads of the method Foo on the
class Bar:
Bar.Foo()
Bar.Foo(String myString)

I would like to create tags like this:
<see cref="Bar.Foo()">Foo version 1</see>
<see cref="Bar.Foo(myString)">Foo version 2</see>

Right now all I know how to do is this:
<see cref="Bar.Foo">Foo</see>
But this is not specific enough.

You can try something like <see cref="Bar.Foo(String)>...</see>.

What goes in the parenthesis is the type of what is being passed in, not the
parameter name.
