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.
 
Nicholas,

Thank you very much!

Your solution works perfect, and I finally have what I expected

Best regards,
Ostap
