[dba-VB] VB.Net - XML comments

Hi Shamil et al

XAML (Avalon) is perhaps the most interesting part:

Consistent presentation model by using XAML, the declarative
presentation language used in Windows Vista*based applications.
Controls, visual designs, media, and other elements can be presented
with full design fidelity in both Silverlight and Windows*based
applications.

What the industry standard product do you mean?

Have you heard about MS SilverLight?

http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/default01.aspx

It's Flash "killer".
It works under FireFox and Safari from the first version as far as I
have
heard. It should work also under Mono on Linux in not that far future.

Well, becoming NDoc expert took one hour here :)
I mean it's really easy to use it.
But I will definitely switch to SandCastle when/if needed - I will
switch
because NDoc is "dead" now...

Hi Shamil:

It is the sad commentary on enterprises who have directly challenged or
in
the case of ndoc was just in the path of Microsoft. The Sand Castle
might
relate to MS's sand-box secure technology. Also see the interesting
comments, at the bottom of the page, relating to the open-source
community.

I am in the process of replacing the code from a web-site created in
SWiSH,
a Marcomedia/Adobe Flash competitor as the latest offering from FireFox
and
Internet Explorer deem the product insecure and now many of its
functions
are failing. The client could have bought me the latest version of the
SWiSH
product but decided it would be safer to stick the industry standard
product.

The final point is that it would be pointless to become an expert at
the
ndoc product as Sand Castle seems to be the heir-apparent. 
  
Jim

Hi John,

I used NDOc with VS.NET 2003 (http://ndoc.sourceforge.net/) - that
worked
great. 

But then MS came with NDoc competitor - SandCastle - and NDoc "died":
http://smccormack.blogs.com/adapdev/2006/08/thoughts_on_the.html 

I haven't yet used SandCastle (BTW, very strange name for software - do
they
(MS) mean it's so bad or sandcastles in Western culture is an allegory
of
something flexible, easy tunable, extendable...?

NDoc I hope should work with VS2005 too.

I am using xml comments in place of my regular old comments.  Has
anyone
ever found / used something that yanks the comments out to see what
they
look like as documentation?  What would I use to do that?
