Remarks

Use the <include> tag to refer to comments in another file that describe the types and members in your source code. This is an alternative to placing documentation comments directly in your source code file.

The <include> tag uses the W3C XML Path Language (XPath) Version 1.0 Recommendation. More information for ways to customize your <include> use is available at http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath.

Example

This example uses the <include> tag to import member documentation comments from a file called commentFile.xml.

''' <include file="commentFile.xml" 
''' path="Docs/Members[@name='Open']/*" />
Public Sub Open(ByVal filename As String)
    ' Code goes here.
End Sub
''' <include file="commentFile.xml" 
''' path="Docs/Members[@name='Close']/*" />
Public Sub Close(ByVal filename As String)
    ' Code goes here.
End Sub

The format of the commentFile.xml is as follows.

<Docs>
<Members name="Open">
<summary>Opens a file.</summary>
<param name="filename">File name to open.</param>
</Members>
<Members name="Close">
<summary>Closes a file.</summary>
<param name="filename">File name to close.</param>
</Members>
</Docs>
