Announcing September 2007 Sandcastle Release

I am excited to announce the availability of September 2007 version for Sandcastle. The latest version is now available for download at https://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=E82EA71D-DA89-42EE-A715-696E3A4873B2&displaylang=en. My sincere thanks to the Sandcastle user community for providing us with valuable feedback.

What's new in this version:

  1. CHMBuilder for CHM generation using Sandcastle. Please see https://blogs.msdn.com/sandcastle/archive/2007/09/13/building-chm-using-chmbuilder.aspx.
  2. New Hybrid design (Presentation changes to VS2005 transforms). Please see https://blogs.msdn.com/sandcastle/archive/2007/09/19/part-1-vs-2005-presentation-changes-in-sandcastle-september-release.aspx.
  3. Windows PowerShell script for documenting APIs using Sandcastle. Please see https://blogs.msdn.com/sandcastle/archive/2007/09/12/documenting-apis-with-sandcastle-using-windows-powershell.aspx.
  4. VersionBuilder tool to provide support for documenting multiple versions of a project. I will post a blog on this shortly.
  5. DBCSFix for CHM localization – Please see https://blogs.msdn.com/sandcastle/archive/2007/09/29/chm-localization-and-unicode-issues-dbcsfix-exe.aspx
  6. Reduced installer size: This version has a 1.5 MB installer. We accomplished this by not shipping Framework reflection data. Framework reflection data is now generated during the first run of the test project
  7. 5 Star MSDN style Feedback Control

Changes in this version:

  1. Data\Reflection is not installed by the msi. It’s now generated when a use runs the test project (using msproject or batch or powershell). This will take about 4 minutes to generate the files.
  2. CHM will be generated in a CMH folder instead of the Output folder.

Getting Started:

1. Using the command line option for the batch file under Examples/Sandcastle folder to build VS2005 or hana or prototype style CHM or HxS file

1. Build_sandcatle.bat vs2005 test

2. Build_sandcatle.bat prototype test

3. Build_sandcatle.bat hana test

If you need to generate hxs, please uncomment the following line in build_sandcastle.bat. Make sure "Microsoft Help 2.0 SDK" is installed on your machine.

::hxcomp.exe -p output\test.hxc

2. Using msbuild to generate build for VS2005 or hana or prototype, CHM or HxS file

1.    Msbuild build.proj /property:PresentationStyle=vs2005

2.    Msbuild build.proj /property:PresentationStyle=hana

3.    Msbuild build.proj /property:PresentationStyle=prototype

To build hxs, add /target:Hxs, eg: Msbuild build.proj /property:PresentationStyle=vs2005 /target:Hxs

1. Sandcastle: Add other supported languages to configs

29. Sandcastle: The method signature in "Members" section looks uncorrectly. (vsorcas style, Language Filter: Visual C++)

30. Sandcastle: There is an unhandled Exception araise when I run Build_sandcastle with vsorcas style

31. Sandcastle: When a method overrides another, the name of the class defining the original method is not present in the description
