We are glad to announce that the new VSdocman 13.0 has been released. VSdocman is a Visual Studio tool for a quick commenting and automatic generation of technical documentation from your C# and VB .NET source code files. For more information, go to VSdocman home page.
This major update brings the support for Visual Studio 2026 and fixes some problems. You can download it from here.
What's new in VSdocman version 13.0:
- NEW: Added support for VS 2026.
- CHANGE: The links to .NET members in the chm_2025 documentation now open in the default browser. Previously, they opened directly in the CHM viewer, which could cause issues with modern pages, such as script errors. The CHM viewer uses an old rendering engine that lacks compatibility with newer HTML standards.
- FIX: The VSdocman installer could incorrectly report that no installed version of Visual Studio was found, if also the 'SQL Server Management Studio 21' (preview) was installed. This has been fixed.
- FIX: In some cases, when generating documentation for some projects (e.g., WPF) targeting .NET 6 or newer, dead links to .NET members were generated and reported.
- FIX: Implicitly implemented methods/properties in C# (not explicitly implemented) were not recognized as implemented. This resulted in missing documentation that should be inherited from the implemented interface.
- FIX: Comments from external code members (from referenced assemblies) that were inherited or implemented were not included in the generated documentation. For example, if a class implemented an interface from an external assembly, the comments from the interface members were not included in the documentation of the implementing class.
- FIX: The table of contents in the generated PDF file was not properly updated in very rare cases. Instead, it showed the [Press ALT+A and F9 to update the TOC and other fields] text. This has been fixed.
