Default Comments in class lib


Hi,
I have a soluation that has a class lib and a windows app. when I look at
object explorer for the summary info on the dll it shows up. When I copy
that dll into another project and look at the object lib the summary info
does not show up.
Why is this?
Brian

because the summary info etc are XML Comments so you need the accompanying
XML file

In addition, the name of the XML file is the same as those the binary, but
its extension is ".xml" ("ClassLibrary.xml", for example). You'll find the
file in the output folder next to the binary.
