I am documenting an assembly using XML Documentation Comments, from which a chm file will be created using Sandcastle.

My assembly contains various interfaces, each of which is implemented by one class (in my scenario these are WCF services).

I have added documentation to the interfaces, is there any way for me to automatically document the relevant methods on the implementing classes?

    There seems to not be any support for such autodocumentation in Sandcastle. The Sandcastle Help File Builder though implements a custom inheritdoc tag.

    From the SHFB site:

    Support is included for the <inheritdoc /> tag which allows you to inherit documentation from base types/members. This is implemented via a standalone tool so it can also be used by other third-party tools and build scripts. This tool provides features beyond those found in the build component supplied with Sandcastle.

    Second Update: according to this workitem, the Sandcastle ‘support’ for inheritdoc is through the SHFB tool. Bottom line I suppose is, SHFB solves your problem.
