Documentation Rules

Cause

A section of the Xml header documentation for a C# element does not contain any whitespace between words.

Rule Description

C# syntax provides a mechanism for inserting documentation for classes and elements directly into the code, through the use of Xml documentation headers. For an introduction to these headers and a description of the header syntax, see the following article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc302121.aspx.

A violation of this rule occurs when part of the documentation does contain any whitespace between words. This can indicate poorly written or poorly formatted documentation. For example:

/// <summary>

/// Joinsnames

/// </summary>

/// <param name="firstName">First</param>

/// <param name="lastName">Last</param>

/// <returns>Name</returns>

public string JoinNames(string firstName, string lastName)

{

...

}

How to Fix Violations

To fix a violation of this rule, ensure that all sections of the documentation contain at least one instance of whitespace between words.
