Purpose
GhostDoc is a Visual Studio extension, which automatically generates XML documentation comments for the methods and the properties based on their type, parameters, name and other contextual information.
When generating documentation for a derived class from a base class or for an interface implementation (e.g. .NET Framework or your custom framework), GhostDoc will use the documentation, which Microsoft or the framework vendor has already written for the base class or interface.
Benefits
- Save keystrokes and time.
- Simplify documenting your code.
- Benefit of the base class documentation
- XML Comment Preview
If you follow good naming conventions in your code, then you will get very decent results on the summary generated by GhostDoc. When I see the code, which is not documented, it is as simple as hitting Ctrl-Shift-D to have GhostDoc document it.
