Announcing September Sandcastle CTP Technical Refresh

The September CTP technical refresh version for Sandcastle is now available for download at https://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=E82EA71D-DA89-42EE-A715-696E3A4873B2&displaylang=en.

What's new in this version:

  1. Visual Studio 2005 look and feel transforms.
  2. Art folder for VS2005 presentation renamed to icons for consistency
  3. State of Syntax tab persists across topics in HxS build.
  4. Transforms for hiding explicit interface implementations.
  5. Index and keyword generation in HxS build. To generate Index and keyword for HxS build please modify sandcastle.config. Under the transformation step in sandcastle.config, change <argument name=”metadata” value=”false” /> to <argument name=”metadata” value=”true” />

Note: We are providing VS 2005 transforms under Presentation/VS2005 folder and the transforms shipped with the previous versions under Presentation/Prototype folder. For building VS2005 format please use sandcastle.config file from C:\Program Files\Sandcastle\Presentation\vs2005\Configuration folder as it uses shared content from C:\Program Files\Sandcastle\Presentation\vs2005\Content and transforms from C:\Program Files\Sandcastle\Presentation\vs2005\Transforms

Issues Fixed in this Version:

  1. CPP rendering in presentation.css
  2. Typos in Presentation\Prototype\transforms\main_sandcastle.xsl
  3. Typos in Presentation\Prototype\content\reference_content.xml
  4. Fixed <list> bug in the VS2005 main_sandcastle.xsl file (@class instead of @type)
  5. Member section not appearing for VS2005 style
  6. For VS2005 style On Member pages, the "Namespace:" at the top is always empty.
  7. The VS2005 style doesn't show the parameter names/types in the TOC and the topic headers
  8. For VS2005 style On Namespaces pages, type categories (class, structure, interfaces) with no items show empty list.
  9. Notlastchild.gif is missing in prototype presentation.
  10. Pubstructure.gif has transparent background now
  11. Broken images missing for vs2005 style

    Anand, Is it possible in the September CTP Technical Refresh to pull /// comments from within a function, or is Sandcastle limited to the comment block above the function?

    Hi ssj4finalflash, Sandcastle has nothing to do with pulling /// comments from a function. Sandcastle processes /// comments using the /doc compiler switch in CSC. This may be a limitation of /doc compiler. Also if you post your Sandcastle questions http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx?ForumID=66&SiteID=1 others will be able to participate and answer. Thanks for using Sandcastle. Anand..

    This release works nearly perfectly! With a lot of courage you can get great results. For instance with some post-processing I generated an online documentation (see http://doc.postsharp.org/). If you want to get inspiration, the source code is available (see http://www.postsharp.org/development). Gael
