<see> (C# Programming Guide) 

  • Article
<see cref="member"/>

Parameters

  • cref = " member"
    A reference to a member or field that is available to be called from the current compilation environment. The compiler checks that the given code element exists and passes member to the element name in the output XML. ** Place member within double quotation marks (" ").

Remarks

The <see> tag lets you specify a link from within text. Use <seealso> to indicate that text should be placed in a See Also section.

Compile with /doc to process documentation comments to a file.

See <summary> for an example of using <see>.

Example

The following example shows how to make a cref reference to a generic type.

// compile with: /doc:DocFileName.xml 

// the following cref shows how to specify the reference, such that,
// the compiler will resolve the reference
/// <summary cref="C{T}">
/// </summary>
class A { }

// the following cref shows another way to specify the reference, 
// such that, the compiler will resolve the reference
// <summary cref="C &lt; T &gt;">

// the following cref shows how to hard-code the reference
/// <summary cref="T:C`1">
/// </summary>
class B { }

/// <summary cref="A">
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>
class C<T> { }
