  • 0

I can’t seem to find the ‘Build’ option under ‘Configuration Properties’ folder in the Property Pages of my project. I’ve been looking everywhere trying to figure out how to do it.

I followed the direations here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc302121.aspx

More specifically here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azt1z1eh.aspx (‘To build the XML Documentation sample within Visual Studio’ section)

I want to generate XML comments for my project in the build, but my ‘Configuration Properties’ window does not have ‘folders’ or a ‘Build’ option under it.

I’m using Visual Studio Team System 2008, any ideas?

EDIT -> This is a website [project-less] and it is written in both C# and VB.NET.

Do I need to download any tools? I found GhostDoc but that’s not helping me very much.

  1. I’m not sure what you mean by the ‘Configuration Properties’ folder. I don’t have anything like that – if I just double click on ‘Properties’ under the project (in Solution Explorer), it comes up with the properties page which has the following tabs (for a console app in VS 2008 Pro):

    • Application
    • Build
    • Build events
    • Debug
    • Resources
    • Services
    • Settings
    • Reference Paths
    • Signing
    • Security
    • Publish

    Does this sound anything like the screen you’re looking at? Can you grab a screenshot of what you’ve got?

    If you just double click on ‘Properties’ what do you get?
