Question by Firedan1176 · May 11, 2014 at 01:05 AM · customization

How can I add a summary to a function (void)?

I was wondering if it were possible to add a custom summary to my function so when I type in my function name (KillUser), the autocorrect box will display the parameters it needs and a summary below it which displays information about it. Is that possible for a function? THanks

Not sure if MonoDevelop supports this.

     /// <summary>
     /// Returns 1 if passed true or -1 if passed false.
     /// </summary>
     /// <param name="myBool">Parameter value to pass.</param>
     /// <returns>Returns an integer based on the passed value.</returns>
     private int MyFunction(bool myBool)
     {
         if (myBool)
             return 1;
         else
             return -1;
     }

Using the triple / will cause the IDE to create a Function Summary block above the function. As you begin to write the function call you will notice it shows you the summary and parameter descriptions.

There is also [Tooltip("Describe the tip")] for public stuff.

That works for describing public (or private/protected with [SerializeField]) attributes on a component when viewed in the inspector.

Attributes are no functions, though, so not quite what the OP asked about. Still useful to know I guess.
