Spacing Rules

Cause

A line within a documentation header above a C# element does not begin with a single space.

Rule Description

A violation of this rule occurs when a line within a documentation header does not begin with a single space. For example:

    ///<summary>

    ///The summary text.

    ///</summary>

    ///   <param name="x">The document root.</param>

    ///    <param name="y">The Xml header token.</param>

    private void Method1(int x, int y)

    {

    }

 

The header lines should begin with a single space after the three leading forward slashes:

    /// <summary>

    /// The summary text.

    /// </summary>

    /// <param name="x">The document root.</param>

    /// <param name="y">The Xml header token.</param>

    private void Method1(int x, int y)

    {

    }

How to Fix Violations

To fix a violation of this rule, ensure that the header line begins with a single space.
