.NET Documentation Tool 8.3

The .NET Documentation Tool creates comprehensive technical software documentation for .NET Framework applications written in VB.NET or C#. Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Access databases associated with the application may also be documented if required. There is enhanced functionality for documenting ASP.NET web applications.

Reports are created in HTML [sample], Microsoft's HTML Help [sample] and text [sample] formats. Color coded, syntax highlighted copies of the .NET and SQL code are included with the reports. The compiled HTML Help reports include fully searchable source code, making the
.NET Documentation Tool an invaluable utility in understanding application source code. Versions for ASP and Visual Basic 6.0 are also available.

Changes in version 8.3 of the .NET Documentation Tool are:


  • In response to user requests, it is now possible to specify a string of HTML that can be added to the HEAD portion of the HTML files created by the .NET Documentation Tool. An example use of this is to allow a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) file to be specified.
  • Improved the detection of C# and VB.NET properties.
  • Improved the detection of C# and VB.NET items.
  • Improved the detection of C# and VB.NET subroutines.
