<component id="IntelliSense Component">

      Attributes:
         Include Namespaces (false by default)
         Namespaces filename ("Namespaces" if not specified or empty)
         Output folder (current folder if not specified or empty) -->

Remarks

Only the basic set of tags needed for IntelliSense are exported and only for documented API members. This is based on the Microsoft IntelliSense build component. That version only works with Microsoft-specific XML comments files and does not work with general XML comments files created by the compilers.
