Recommended Tags for Documentation Comments (C# Programming Guide)

  • Artigo

The C# compiler processes documentation comments in your code and formats them as XML in a file whose name you specify in the /doc command-line option. To create the final documentation based on the compiler-generated file, you can create a custom tool, or use a tool such as Sandcastle.

Tags are processed on code constructs such as types and type members.

Note

Documentation comments cannot be applied to a namespace.

The compiler will process any tag that is valid XML. The following tags provide generally used functionality in user documentation.

Tags

<c>

<para>

<see>*

<code>

<param>*

<seealso>*

<example>

<paramref>

<summary>

<exception>*

<permission>*

<typeparam>*

<include>*

<remarks>

<typeparamref>

<list>

<returns>

<value>

(* denotes that the compiler verifies syntax.)

If you want angle brackets to appear in the text of a documentation comment, use &lt; and &gt;, as shown in the following example.

/// <summary cref="C &lt; T &gt;">
/// </summary>
