VS 2008 - Creating Comments Tags Without Generating XML Documentation File
Jul 6, 2009
When in VS 2008 if a developer hits the ''' it generates the XML comment tags for you, but this only works when the project setting for "Generate XML documentation file" is checked. Is there a way to tell VS to generate the XML Comment tags, regardless of the project setting? I think it is possible that someone may want comments but not create a XML documentation file. In this case I am exceeding the current Team Settings, yet other developers don't want me to change this project setting. This forces me to flip this back before checking in the project. I have the same problem with other Project settings like "code Analysis". This is only a problem for VB.NET projects.

I'd like to realize a plugin for MC with Windows Seven but I have a problem: I don't know how I could access to tags and comments of a file. I know how to get 'system properties' (creation date, lenght, ...) but I ignore how to get metadata like tags or comments.

How do I edit JPG File Title, Subject, Comments, and Tags/Keyowrds?The Exif information provided was helpful, but in the end did not actually solve the real riddle I was working on. So I'll take another angle at describing the desired result:
I want my VB.NET app to allow me to edit the following details of a Jfile (see image):
Title, Subject, Comments, and Tags/Keyowrds
I had a handy image to include but not enough points to post it. Weak.
RIGHT CLICK A .JPG IN WINDOWS and select PROPERTIES
Win XP: Select the "Summary Tab" and Look at the "Description" group
Win7/Server 2008R2: "Details Tab" and look at "Description" group
how to edit those fields through VB.net in Visual Studio?
EDIT: The ultimate goal is to use the image viewer/editer that I built, to sort thousands of images of random webjunk I have collected over the years.Upon viewing the image (say "00001.jpg") and figureing out what it is ("ceiling cat sends son" picture of a lol cat), I want to type in the description (already done in the form). When I hit enter I want to rename the file (from "00001.jpg" to "ceiling-cat-sends-son.jpg", then fill in the keywords, title, subject, and comments fields with the same data: "ceiling cat sends son".
local indexing and with my (later) automating a SQL server referential database for use with site wide searches on my website. The ONLY thing I can't seem to figure out is how to modify those four fields as if I had right-clicked the file and added the keywords.

One 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.

there are tools (SandCastle?) that can generate an MSDN-like documentation (HTML files) from your source code by using the XML comments above members. I am looking to generate a similar documentation (bunch of HTML files that one can link through), except not from XML comments but completely manually.It is for a custom scripting language, I have to document the available functions, and it would be great if I could do that in this common documentation style. Since there are no XML comments to generate the documentation from (the documentation is for the scripting language itself, not for my source code of the scripting language?
What I'm looking for in detail is a way to generate these documentation files by simply supplying this information for each function:
- Namespace (just the name and maybe a description)
- Function name + description + return type
- List of arguments and their types
from this I would to generate a document where one can first view all the Namespaces, click one (they are supposed to be links) and view all the functions in that namespace. Then you can click on a function name and view its description and list of arguments for that function.In other words: just like these automatic tools do, except now I want to supply this information manually.
While writing this I thought of one way that I might be able to do it: just create namespaces and functions in actual VB code (corresponding to the scripting language functions) and generate the documentation from that, but
1) That seems a little contrived especially if a better tool is available,
2) I would be in trouble with the types of functions and arguments, since they would have to be .NET types and not the types that my scripting language supports.

This might seem like an odd question, but is there a way to make it so that any form that is created based on another, would have some comments in the code behind of the new form?
For example, i create a form called frmONE, and i put in code like this:
Overridable Sub frmONE_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Make sure you call these functions, in this order:

I am getting the following compilation errors from Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express on the first line of my code:
Error 1 Newline in constant C: cdotnetdevsrcvbmain estHelper.vb 1 1 Component Sources
Error 2 Too many characters in character literal C: cdotnetdevsrcvbmainRtestHelper.vb 1 1 Component Sources
The first line of my code is simply:
' Copyright 2011
It is generating the same compilation error for all my comments. Does anyone know why MS VB Express 2010 is acting this weird? Comments in visual basic are supposed to start with a single apostrophe so I don't understand this weird behavior.

Here at my company we have an Access application that allows users to create documents based on invoices that are in Great Plains, an accounting program. Documents such as invoices, packing lists, export documentation, etc., etc.This application is very old and very hard to maintain so we're doing a rewrite and I've chosen this project to be my first Visual Basic .NET project.Basically what the application is going to do is allow users to do the following:
Pull up invoice information and then add some secondary information such as comments and the like Choose which documents they want to print out Open the documents and then allow the user to edit the documents That last part is the tricky part. The users right now create these documents out of Access and print to a PDF and then edit the PDF with comments that can be specific to the document and customer. If they didn't have to do that, then I could just used canned reports or something.
What I am thinking of doing is creating Word templates with text boxes and inside those text boxes adding addressable bookmarks. When the user goes to print the documents, open Word, populate the bookmarks from the database (SQL Server) and then that will let them draw text boxes and fill them with whatever they want before they print the documents and then they can save them.
Here's the code I worked out to do this (of course the final result will be much more complex):
Public Const wdPageBreak = 7
Dim oWord As Word.Application
Dim oDoc As Word.Document

how to call or reference an item from an xml document. I hava a java app that i'm converting over to vb.net. The java application uses the digester class to to parse the information. The app uses 2 classes and the xml file. one class is the Vb.net Parameter class (fully converted from Java to vb.net) that pulls the information out of the xml document and then places it when called into the 2nd class file.
I'm pretty sure that i need to use the system.xml class to do this however i'm having or just not reading the examples properly.
I have partially converted the code over to vb.net, it still has some java references.

I'm currently having issues with the following scenario:
1. I will build several DLLs with "Generate XML Documentation" set.
2. The DLL and XML files are copied onto another server (the build drop).
3. The copy will fail as the XML files are being locked by other users referencing these DLLs from their open Visual Studio projects.
Note that this also occurs on a local computer; open up two Visual Studios and use reference paths to reference the Binary folders. You'll find that the refrencing instance of Visual Studio will lock up the XML files causing the first Visual Studio to have problems compiling.
1. Is this a bug in Visual Studio 2008? Why is it holding exclusive locks on these files from the other computers? Is there a fix for this?
2. Is there a way to "package" the XML file into the DLL? I've noticed a lot of other .NET DLLs in the world that include all of their comments INSIDE of the DLL. No XML files necessary. (unless they're not .NET dll's).We're doing a lot of framework development here and it's imperative to include the XML documentation... unfortunately we've had to disable it to allow new builds to trickle through.

With my code as I have a trouble with the returned strings that I have extracted from my php source to add the strings in my listview.
I'm reading the tags of mystrings1 and mystrings2 for each paragraph from the php source. I got the returned strings which it looks like this:
PHP
<p id='mystrings1'>my strings</p> | <a href="http://xfvasfasfasfasf">Link</a> </td> | <a href="delete.php?id=0">Delete</a> </td> | <span id="mystrings2">Enabled</td>
I want the returned strings to be like this when I reads the tags of mystrings1 and mystrings2 while ignore the other tags.
PHP
<p id='mystrings1'>my strings</p> | <span id="mystrings2">Enabled</td>
Here's the
Public Sub timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
timer1.Enabled = False
timer1.Stop()
[CODE]...
Do you know how I can ignore the other tags when I get the returned strings of mystrings1 and mystrings2?

I know how to use the <include> keyword from my code to refer to a member in an external comments file. Something like: <include file="Comments.xml" path="Docs/ClassName/Members[@name='DoIt']/*" /> However, I have members in the Comments.xml file which are repeated that I would like to split out and refer to within the Comments.xml file itself. As an example, it could be an argument definition that is used multiple time. I've tried the same format as above, but it doesn't work.

I am planning to create a system for my case study wherein i can Add tags from images and search for it by "tags" such as photobucket. For example i open an image to my system, and it's file name was "WhiteHouse.jpg" and i added or tagged it as "Building". Once i search on my computer, and type the word/keyword "Building", the image "WhiteHouse.jpg" will be displayed on search results as i tagged it on my system.Is that possible guys? or i can only search by tags using my system/application? and not in the search command in my computer?If it is possible please tell me what to do. or if you have sample vb.net2008(windows Application) files it will be helpful. Or if you have sites related into it. pls send me those links, especially downloadable vb.net files w/ codes for further studying.
