Question

I would like to generate code documentation (C#, .net4) to MS Word file (.doc, .docx). This is not because I think it is better, but because it is easier to version control when compared to a set of HTML docs.

I am looking into the possibility and practicality of this and weighing the options.

I see doxygen can produce RTF documents. There is nothing wrong with doxygen, I just want to know if there is anything else out there (paid or not) to make sure I have weighed a few different options.

Edit: Just in case it isn’t clear, I would like to create documentation of the summery comments in my C# code. Visual Studio exports this to XML already. Tools like doxygen inspects the code files them self. I want to convert these comments to Word docs.

Answer 1

You can try our VSdocman. It can generate various formats, including RTF, of the summary XML comments.
