How do i generate documentation for my Class Library?

Question

hi I have written some class libraries with XML inline documentations. In ealier version of VS such as 2002 / 2003 had CHM documentation generation tool. But afterwards i couldnt find any tools to generate documentation at the moment i use VS 2008 TS and Visual Web developer 2005 Express. I've checked the DVDs for documentation generation tools but i couldnt find any.... so how do i generation documentations for my libraries? Are there any free tools if VS doesnt provide one? TY

Hi Friend I replied to many of your questions you don't even mark any of them. However here I still want to recommend two wonderful tools to you. GhostDoc: This will general xml comment based on your method name or your class name. It's very intellegient . Sandcastle: This tool will extact the comment from your source code file and generate chm or msdn like document. However it's command line based. So you may also check out SandCastle Flex Bulider If you like it please do not forget to accept it.

Hi Petre There are tools availaible on internet which directly converts all your XML comments in chm files. One of them I know is SandCastle. Just search it on google you will find exe install it and use it. It is easy and if you have problem let me know. Bye.
