Custom -vsdoc.js intellisense not displaying

I have a custom javascript called chris-vsdoc.js

Im trying to get Visual Studio 2010 intellisense to display the sayHello function

var chris = new chris();
function chris() {
    this.sayHello = function (message) {
        /// <summary>
        /// Shows a message in a dialog box, with an OK开发者_StackOverflow社区 button.
        /// </summary>  
        /// <param name="message">
        /// message - the message to display
        /// </param>
    }

 }

My other .js files have a reference in them list this

/// <reference path="../chris-vsdoc.js" />

Any ideas how to get intellisense working?

Is there something Im missing?

You can use virtual root (~/) paths in the Intellisense reference directive, which has worked best for me in the past, e.g.:

/// <reference path="~/Scripts/chris-vsdoc.js" />

Also, you can mark up your actual chris.js file with the VSDoc comments and reference that, rather than needing to have a separate VSDoc. Minification will strip out all the VSDoc information anyway since it's just a regular JavaScript comment that begins with another /.

I usually end up with a central main.js (named based on the project, not "main"), and then several main.namespace.js files that eventually all get combined into one (with "main"). main.js has a /// <reference /> to each of the main.namespace.js files and then each of those has a single /// <reference /> back to main.js.

Using that approach, I get correct, VSDoc-driven Intellisense for the entire group of files in any one of them.
