How to copy .NET API documentation?

Question

If a class implements a method defined in an interface you can choose whether you duplicate the documentation or reference it with <see cref="..." />.

public interface IPerformer
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Do something useful.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="something">Object to do something with</param>
    void Do(Something something);
}

public class Implementation : IPerformer
{
    /// <copy from="IPerformer" /> # that is what I want!
    public void Do(Something something)
    {
        // implementation ...
    }
}

Is it possible to let the API documentation tool (Sandcastle) copy the documentation automatically (what would make reading the API documentation more comfortable)? Something like @inheritDoc from Java Doc?

Answer 1

Sandcastle Help File Builder (SHFB) provide this functionality through the inheritdoc tag.
