How to get full intellisense tooltip comments working?

Answer 1

Just to summarise, for this to work you need your comments in a compatible form:

/// <summary>
/// Retrieves the widget at the specified index
/// </summary>
/// <param name="widgetIndex">Index of the widget to retrieve.</param>
/// <returns>The widget at the specified index</returns>
Widget* GetWidget(int widgetIndex);

Then you simply right-click on the project in Visual Studio and go to properties > configuration properties > C/C++ > Output Files and change Generate XML Documentation Files to Yes.

When you rebuild your project ad import it somewhere else, you should see fully documented tooltips appear.
