In the video Siemens posted online, I saw a code. This code is part of the EngineeringInternalExtension.dll library. Please find the library here.

info from internet

They always have a comment for each method. This is really helpful for me to understand the API. But in my current code, please find it below, I found no comment at all. I don't know why this happens, I think it might be that I use the wrong reference, could you please help me?

I guess you don't have the related EngineeringInternalExtension.xml file.

Comments should be stored there.

  • I can't find the related EngineeringInternalExtension.xml file. Can I open the .dll file to see what is inside? – james_66 Sep 29 '21 at 22:07
  • '/// comments' are not in the assembly file. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1202522/how-can-the-net-source-code-xml-comments-be-persisted-in-the-assembly-metadata – GibbOne Sep 30 '21 at 05:17
  • Thanks a lot, should the XML file always have the same name as the .dll file? Because I can't find EngineeringInternalExtension.xml on my computer, maybe it has a different name. I can find EngineeringInternalExtension.pdb on my computer – james_66 Sep 30 '21 at 09:46
  • Yes. File '.pdb' contains debug symbols, it doesn't contain comments. – GibbOne Sep 30 '21 at 09:53
  • Thank you, I think I need to contact the developer of this .dll file to ask for a . XML file. Do you know any other approaches? – james_66 Sep 30 '21 at 10:02
  • IMO, no way ... – GibbOne Sep 30 '21 at 10:36
  • I got the .xml file, and it works for me now. Thanks a lot! – james_66 Sep 30 '21 at 14:04
