Name of tool for VB.NET documentation comments

What is the name of the tool that allowed VB.NET code to have embedded documentation comments (corresponding to C# documentation comments) that could be extracted by this tool?

I am going through some old code; Visual Studio 2005 era. A trivial example is:

'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
'''  <summary>
'''  Summary of Dispose.
'''  </summary>
'''  <param name="disposing"></pa开发者_C百科ram>
Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
    If disposing Then                                                
        If Not (components Is Nothing) Then                          
            components.Dispose()                                     
        End If                                                       
    End If                                                           
    MyBase.Dispose(disposing)                                        
End Sub                                                              

There was a 3rd party free (open source?) documentation generator tool that integrated into the Visual Studio menus.

Developers also used to use nDoc. That might be what was used on your project. It's free and not Microsoft. It isn't used as much any more, as it isn't being maintained. And it's more oriented to C#. But there's at least one VB helper tool. These may not be what you'd want to use now, but they might correspond to the syntax of the comments embedded in your legacy code.

And there's another open source tool from Microsoft called VBCommenter.

Sandcastle - Not sure if it includes a VS plugin, but a quick Google search turns up a few tools like DocProject to integrate it.

Could be VSDocMan URL: http://www.helixoft.com/vsdocman/overview.html

I found it. It was VBXMLDoc, later renamed to VBXC. It has not been updated since 2006. It was freeware (not open source) and version 1.0 was supposed to be commercial (or shareware). But the last version was beta 3, still free. It is still possible to download beta 3. Adding XML comments to the code.
