<value> (Visual C++)

The latest version of this topic can be found at <value> (Visual C++).

The <value> tag lets you describe a property and property accessor methods. Note that when you add a property with a code wizard in the Visual Studio integrated development environment, it will add a <summary> tag for the new property. You should then manually add a <value> tag to describe the value that the property represents.

Syntax

<value>property-description</value>  

Parameters

property-description
A description for the property.

Remarks

Compile with /doc to process documentation comments to a file.

Example

// xml_value_tag.cpp  
// compile with: /LD /clr /doc  
// post-build command: xdcmake xml_value_tag.dll  
using namespace System;  
/// Text for class Employee.  
public ref class Employee {  
private:  
   String ^ name;  
   /// <value>Name accesses the value of the name data member</value>  
public:  
   property String ^ Name {  
      String ^ get() {  
         return name;   
      }  
      void set(String ^ i) {  
         name = i;  
      }  
   }  
};
