XML Document Generator Tool Property Pages

The XML Document Generator Tool property page exposes the functionality of xdcmake.exe, or XDCMake. XDCMake merges .xdc files into an .xml file when your source code contains documentation comments and /doc (Process Documentation Comments) (C/C++) is specified. For more information on adding documentation comments to source code, see Recommended tags for documentation comments.

Note

XDCMake options in the development environment (property pages) differ from the options when xdcmake.exe is used at the command line. For information on using xdcmake.exe at the command line, see XDCMake reference.

UIElement List

• Suppress Startup Banner

  Suppress copyright message.

• Additional Document Files

  Additional directories in which you want the project system to look for .xdc files. XDCMake always looks for .xdc files generated by the project. Multiple directories can be specified.

• Output Document File

  The name and directory location of the .xml output file. For more information on using macros to specify directory locations, see Common macros for build commands and properties.

• Document Library Dependencies

  If your project has a dependency on a .lib project in the solution, you can process .xdc files from the .lib project into the .xml files for the current project.
