DocProject RC1 Update

I've made some more modifications to the DocProject software. Several classes have been refactored again and some new classes have been added. A few work items have been addressed and now there is support for Visual Basic.NET and ASP.NET Web Application projects (DocSites). You can also cancel the build in the middle of a step.

Download the latest release, version 1.2.0, at DocProject on CodePlex.

Collaboration

Steve Bokser, a programmer and a friend of mine, helped me to test the new release by installing it on his machine before I made it available to the public. We identified a few issues that didn't surface during my own testing since we have different versions of Visual Studio installed. I took care of the issues that I could fix before the CodePlex deployment and I adjusted the release notes and wikis to include information regarding the setup and configuration issues. Thanks Steve!

Custom Templates

An organization may want to create a custom template that their developers can use to create DocProjects or DocSites for their Visual Studio projects. A custom DocProject or DocSite template can provide a standardized means of building compiled help documentation for projects across an entire organization.

A new tutorial has been added to provide guidance for creating new DocProject and DocSite templates:

Wiki Updates

Many of the How To... wikis have been modified to reflect changes in the new release.

A new diagram that illustrates the different components of DocProject and their relationships appears on the home page wiki now:

As always, I'd love to hear from anyone that has something to say about this post.  Drop me a comment.
