Pull Through Documentation

This extension (also available as a NuGet package) provides an analyzer with code fix that gives you the opportunity to pull through documentation from a base class or interface member. For example, if you have this interface:


interface IMyInterface 
{
    /// <summary>
    /// This method does something
    /// </summary>
    void DoSomething();
}

And this class:

class MyClass : IMyInterface
{
    public void DoSomething();
}

The code fix will allow you to pull through the documentation from the interface declaration to the class, resulting in this:

class MyClass : IMyInterface
{
    /// <summary>
    /// This method does something
    /// </summary>
    public void DoSomething();
}

Alternatively, it will give the option to insert <inheritdoc/> instead (or even switch between the two):

class MyClass : IMyInterface
{
    /// <inheritdoc/>
    public void DoSomething();
}
