This project has been retired

Following two years of inactivity, the final nail in the coffin came with PR Tenacom/Buildvana#276, which made this project redundant and basically useless.

Anyone interested in taking it up may contact me (ideally by opening a discussion on the Buildvana repo) about the ownership of NuGet packages.


Cecil.XmlDocNames

License NuGet downloads GitHub downloads Release date

Last commit Open issues Closed issues Changelog

Cecil.XmlDocNames translates Mono.Cecil member references to XmlDoc-style ID strings.

It's a small, MIT-licensed, .NET Standard 2.0 library. Its only dependency is Mono.Cecil.

Why this library

With Cecil.XmlDocNames you can process assemblies and related XML documentation files at the same time.

Or you can automatically augment XML documentation, based on code analysis attributes extracted from compiled assemblies.

Or you can generate external annotation files for ReSharper, based on the contents of compiled assemblies... although you don't really have to bother, because that's exactly what our ReSharper.ExportAnnotations library does (using Cecil.XmlDocNames, of course.)

If you find this library useful, please ⭐ star it. Thank you!

Quick start

It's easy as 1 - 2 - 3:

  1. Reference the NuGet package.
  2. using Cecil.XmlDocNames;
  3. string name = myMemberReference.GetXmlDocName(); where myMemberReference can be an instance of one of the following classes:
    • Mono.Cecil.TypeReference;
    • Mono.Cecil.MethodReference;
    • Mono.Cecil.PropertyReference;
    • Mono.Cecil.FieldReference;
    • Mono.Cecil.EventReference.
