Is it possible for Visual Studio 2008 Automatically create XML Comments tags without "Generate XML documentation file" checked (VB.NET only)?


When in VS 2008 if a developer hits the ''' it generates the XML comment tags for you, but this only works when the project setting for "Generate XML documentation file" is checked.

Is there a way to tell VS to generate the XML Comment tags, regardless of the project setting?

I think it is possible that someone may want comments but not create a XML documentation file.

In this case I am exceeding the current Team Settings, yet other developers don't want me to change this project setting. This forces me to flip this back before checking in the project.

I have the same problem with other Project settings like "code Analysis".

This is only a problem for VB.NET projects.


Solution

  • No for VB.NET and VS2008.
