xml-comments

Hello,

I can't seem to find the "Build" option under "Configuration Properties" folder in the Property Pages of my project. I've been looking everywhere trying to figure out how to do it.

I followed the direations here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc302121.aspx

More specifically here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azt1z1eh.aspx ("To build the XML Documentation sample within Visual Studio" section)

I want to generate XML comments for my project in the build, but my "Configuration Properties" window does not have "folders" or a "Build" option under it.

I'm using Visual Studio Team System 2008, any ideas?

EDIT -> This is a website [project-less] and it is written in both C# and VB.NET.

Do I need to download any tools? I found GhostDoc but that's not helping me very much.

For example, due to less than optimal design choices sometimes a type must be publicly exposed from an assembly for the rest of our code to work, but we don't want customers to use that… >>> More
