Hi,

for my application source code I want to generate a documentation. Using
the VS .NET 2003 tool for generating the docu always implements the non
- public members. How do I generate a docu without these?

Thanks
 
NDoc is generally the best solution for documentation as you get more
control over the formatting and what is visible in the output documentation.
I have an article on this which will be available shortly at OpenNETCF.org
NDoc is available here:-
http://ndoc.sourceforge.net

Too bad its not possible to generate docs for assemblies that reference the
System.Data.SqlServerCe or Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms.dll assemblies ...

I once reported this to MS, and I faintly remember that it had something to
do with the fact that these assemblies shouldn't have had the retargetable
attribute set

Hope they fix it some day ...

Yes this is unfortunate. What you can do in this case is to implement a
separate project configuration for your documentation and use conditional
compilation to exclude calls to these functions (this is of course a major
pain!)
#if !NDOC
SqlCeConnection conn = new SqlCeConnection();
#endif
