Automatically generate XML-Documentation

Question

I'm not quite sure if this is possible, but I was wondering if Visual Studio 10 (2010) or 11 (2012) allows you to automatically generate an XML compliant documentation?

For example, in visual studio, if you are using the programming language C#, when you create a method, and type 3 forward slashes / - it generates a comment above the method with a place to fill in a summary, and descriptions for all parameters.

Example:

/// <summary>
/// 
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value1"></param>
/// <param name="value2"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
public int GetSum(int value1, int value2);

If not, is there an extension/tool that allows for doing so?

是的，它被称为doxygen ，这种评论风格实际上被称为“doxygen-comments”。
