I suppress a few warnings, 1591 is the XML comments warning. It’s not that I don’t use the comments, there are some false positives.
Now to find the fact that XML comments warning is 1591 took a whole load of googling. Is there a list somewhere? Or a way to display the error number in Visual Studio itself?
Thanks
It honestly took me less than 5 seconds of Googling to find that, using the search terms “1591” and “visual studio”. The top hit is right on the money: http://www.google.com/search?q=1591+visual+studio
So suffice it to say, this is how I usually find them.
But they’re all documented on the page you land at with the above search results: C# Compiler Errors
Do note that the warning numbers are often different for different languages. In particular, C#, VB.NET, and C/C++ all use different compilers and therefore all emit different error codes.
Also, it’s worth noting that on VS 2008 and later, you can right-click over a warning in the “Error List” to display documentation related to that warning. This tells you the error level, the error number, and whatever other information you need.
