Code comment:<c> not recognised

[Ron James]

I've included the following in a C# class:

/// <summary>
/// The method <c>Junk</c> doesn't do anything.
/// </summary>
public void Junk(){}

After running Tools->Build Comment Web pages, Junk's entry
in the Code Comment Web Report is:

"The method <c>Junk</c> doesn't do anything."

I was expecting the <c> tag to highlight "Junk" as code.
What am I missing?

Many thanks

It seems Build Comment Web Pages has quite a few "problems". Have you
tried NDOC? (if not do a google search, I belive ndoc is on
sourceforge). It handles tags much better (like see, seealso). I'm
not sure why M$ did such a (IMO) lousy job with Build Comment Web
Pages. I used it once and discarded it as pretty worthless.

Nothing. Like Michael said, the "comment web pages" feature is
basically useless. And the <c> tag is broken in the free custom help
builder at http://www.gotdotnet.com/team/ide/ as well, by the way.
Use NDoc instead, available at http://ndoc.sourceforge.net/.
