This is an annoyance more than a problem. My project contains a number of autogenerated files (using mgmtclassgen.exe). When I generate the XML documentation, my beautifully commented library is plagued by xml documentation warnings from these autogen files.

Is there a way to either a) suppress generating documentation for these files or b) suppress warning CS1591 just for a set of files? I obviously do not want to modify files that are autogenerated, even if to just add suppression pragmas.

The library and generated code are both in C# and I’m using Visual Studio 2008.

    AFAIK you cannot suppress this warning only for certain files. You could, if these warnings really bothers you, move the autogenerated code to a separate assembly for which you would disable XML documentation.
