View 1 RepliesI've noticed that in C# XML comments and code comments can have different colors by changing the settings in Tools > Options > Environment > Fonts and Colors > Display Items:
- Comment: controls code comments XML comment: controls XML comments
This works well in C# <summary>This XML comment is green</summary>

Is there any better performance by checking for a true value like this:

Than like this:

I used to be a C# developer so this commenting style was very easy in C#. This is driving me crazy but how do you do this in VB.NET without getting a syntax error?: Private ReadOnly Property AcceptableDataFormat(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) As Boolean

I do not understand vb comments. I read that it is possible to give a hint in the code completion box when someone (or myself?) is using my code. But I do not find something in visual studio.
View 4 RepliesI have been using the method summary XML Comments at the top of my procedures lately and am wondering if there are any logical or good practices related to this.I never put anything in the remarks because I put the description of the method in the summary tag. What belongs in the summary and what belongs in remarks?I seldom put anything in the returns tag because it seems like it would be redundant as I usually explain what is being returned in the summary. Should I simply keep the type of object returned in the returns tag?
View 4 RepliesIs there a way to add comments to an array initialization? For example:
Dim test As UShort() = { _
1, _
2, _
3, _
4 _
}
I'd like to add a comment on each line, but the obvious syntaxes fail (for obvious reasons)
1, 'test _
1 'test, _
So, am I out of luck?
When I'm writing comments in my code, I often forget to add the initial space after the comment identifier.
'this is a comment
when really it is supposed to be
' this is a comment
I realize this is quite trivial, and you could simply say "just add the damn space you idiot", but I'd really like to automate this so that I just don't have to worry about it. add the comment space?note I do realize that a catch all string replace or regex replace could screw up other things ... IE:
Dim something As String = "I'm a nerd"
would actually come out
Dim something As String = "I' m a nerd"
if it's only on a line by it's self and is not followed by a second single quote... IE: '' would not trigger the replacement.
I am working with a datagridview on my form and have a CellContent Click event as shown below;

Now, when I check the checkbox Yes and type in the comments textbox, the Comments are not stored to the table. However, the checkbox is set to a true value.
Is it possible to compile the code without the comments? Or are the comments not compiled as default?

I am completely Goggled out on this one. We currently have a datalist consisting of rows of data for our company. What I need to do is to add a link into the individual cells of a particular column called candidate profile. The link will be View Notes. When that link is clicked, I would like to have a new row expand right below the existing row to allow the additions of comments in the empty row. When the user comes to the page and there are existing comments for the row of data, have it expanded and give the user the ability to expand, or close the comments as they see fit. I also need to figure out the best way to allow the user to enter in the comments as well.

I make pretty extensive use of XML Comments in Visual Studio, but I'm discovering that some project types either don't appear to support them or else have default project settings preventing them from working properly. For example, I position the cursor immediately over a Class, Variable, or Sub declaration and I type ''' - usually this prompts Visual Studio to autofill a whole XML comment block for me, but in a recent Class Library project with COM enabled, this does nothing at all.
View 4 RepliesOne of the Projects in my VB.NET Solution seemed unwilling to let me write XML Documentation in my code. When tapping ''' on the line directly above a method declaration, nothing would happen. The project consisted of modules and classes only(no forms), so I initially thought that had something to do with it.
Later I found that under project properties and the Compile tab, the "Generate XML documentation file" checkbox was left unchecked. Checking this instantly allowed me to place the comments normally. After doing some testing, I also found that Creating an Empty project leaves the checkbox unchecked, while creating a Windows Application automatically checks it.
I have a string(text) which has some sigle line and multiline comments.
single line comments are shown by "--" and multiline by "/* */".

View 2 RepliesI have a MustInherit class, let's call it BaseClass, with a bunch of MustOverride ReadOnly properties. The user is supposed to inherit this class and override the properties, returning appropriate values.To help the user decide which property does what, I have included XML comments for each property, so the BaseClass looks like this [code]I now want to enable the user to inherit this class (DerivedClass1) instead, so that he can, for example, override only the Name property, and leave the other properties untouched. This way, he can create a slight modification to one of the default classes, instead of having to rewrite it completely (in reality, there are loads more properties). There are no XML comments, because they are in the BaseClass, and not in the DerivedClass1, which is the class I'm inheriting. In other words: the XML comments are not 'inherited'.Do I really have to copy/paste all the XML comments from the BaseClass and put them in the DerivedClass1 too? Or can I somehow tell the DerivedClass1 to use the XML comments from its base class?
