My summary information won't show up in Sandca

Question

I'm trying to take advantage of Sandcastle to help build out system documentation, but for some odd reason none of my <summary> data shows up in the chm ... has anyone had success w/ the latest build of Sandcastle and VS2008 using VB?

Answer 1

Have you checked to see that XML document generation is actually turned on (in Build properties) and is creating an XML file in the right place (i.e. bin/Release/)? Also, see this thread on MSDN, which documents the same problem I believe.

Answer 2

It is a 2 step process.

• Had to turn on the XML document generation in the project build window.
• Select the generated XML documentation as the project document source in SandCastle UI.
