VS2005 - XML Code Documentation

[StoneTheCrows]

We all know that if you type \\\ on the line above a function or variable definition etc. what you get is:

///<summary>
///
///</summary>
public void myRidiculouslyLongFunctionNameForNoParticularReason()
{
   DoSomeStuff();
}

or maybe

/// <summary>
/// 
/// </summary>
/// <param name="iVal"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
public double myLittleMathFunction(int iVal)
{
     double rVal =  DoSomeMaths();
     return rVal;
}

And this is Great.

Does anyone know if it is possible to change/modify/add to the XML Documentation comments that are generated?

This is a list of recommended Xml-Tags you can use inside your applications to document your code.

I think there are a couple more, I can post a complete list tomorrow.

Stephan,

Thanks for that. I have to say that I already know what tags can be used, what I am really asking is how do you, or even can you, modify what is inserted automatically when you type /// above a Function/Definition etc.

For example, I want the automatically generated XML comments to include

///<remarks>
///
///</remarks>

I realise I could type this in manually quite easily, but what you don't realise is that I am incredibly lazy and quite forgetfull, so I want VS2005 to do it for me!

Hope this clarifys my question.

Oh, ok sorry didnt understand you correct there! Sorry have no idea how to do that! Sorry about the misunderstanding!
