Generating xml documentation for a web service

HI

I was hoping someone knows how to implement xml documentation for my web service. We use the VS 2005 generated xml documentation for our assembly and create a NDOC help file from it. I however have no such option for web-services, at least I did not find it.

My work around is to reference the web service and generate the documentation on this. however that would not be very useful as it only documents my published web-service functions, and I would have to re-write it every time the service changes.

Any one knows how to get the ///<xml docu> out of my assembly

    A Web Service deoesn't really expose a .NET library and, as such, really doesn't have a need to document exposed .NET types.

    I would suggest creating a class library used by the Web Service and enable XML Documentation in that class library.

    Unless you're trying to use XML documentation for the Web Service operations; that's not what XML documentation is for.
