Summary: Namespace

Genevieve Warren edited this page Oct 20, 2020 · 4 revisions

Namespace

Namespaces can't be documented in source code /// comments. Instead, add namespace summaries to the ns-<namespace>.xml files in the repo that contains your ECMAXML files. For the dotnet/dotnet-api-docs repo, these files are located in the root XML directory.

The following table provides wording guidelines and boilerplate text for Summary sections in namespace pages.

Item Wording Examples
Namespace <Begin with a present-tense, third-person verb, such as Contains or Provides.> System.Diagnostics summary:
Provides classes that allow you to interact with system processes, event logs, and performance counters.

System.Formats.Cbor summary:
Contains types used in reading and writing data in the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) format.
