- Add docs for Char.IUtf8SpanParsable methods (Parse, TryParse) - Add docs for Console.Write/WriteLine with ReadOnlySpan<char> - Add docs for Guid.Parse/TryParse with ReadOnlySpan<byte> - Add docs for Version.IUtf8SpanParsable methods (Parse, TryParse) - MemoryExtensions methods already have proper documentation Co-authored-by: ericstj <8918108+ericstj@users.noreply.github.com>

Copilot seems to have mixed something up here. I had assigned it #120512. It didn't do such a great job. I don't think SWE agent will work well for docs only changes in runtime right now. It's too heavy and doesn't seem to understand some of the nuance. As I mentioned in chat - I decided to just do a local batch to fix everything (except Intrinsics and Numerics). I'll have that PR up shortly. |
Fixes#121096
Summary
This PR adds XML documentation (
///) comments to C# source files for 29 APIs in theSystemnamespace that were added in .NET 10.0, as tracked in issue #121096.Changes
Added comprehensive XML documentation for the following APIs:
System.Char (2 APIs)
IUtf8SpanParsable<char>.Parse(ReadOnlySpan<byte>, IFormatProvider?)IUtf8SpanParsable<char>.TryParse(ReadOnlySpan<byte>, IFormatProvider?, out char)Replaced
inheritdocreferences with full documentation including method summaries, parameter descriptions, return values, and exception specifications.System.Console (2 APIs)
Write(ReadOnlySpan<char>)WriteLine(ReadOnlySpan<char>)Added documentation describing these methods for writing character spans to the standard output stream, consistent with other
WriteandWriteLineoverloads.System.Guid (2 APIs)
Parse(ReadOnlySpan<byte>)TryParse(ReadOnlySpan<byte>, out Guid)Added documentation for parsing UTF-8 byte representations of GUIDs, including appropriate exception documentation for
Parseand return value descriptions forTryParse.System.Version (2 APIs)
IUtf8SpanParsable<Version>.Parse(ReadOnlySpan<byte>, IFormatProvider?)IUtf8SpanParsable<Version>.TryParse(ReadOnlySpan<byte>, IFormatProvider?, out Version?)Replaced
inheritdocreferences with complete documentation including all applicable exceptions (ArgumentException,ArgumentOutOfRangeException,FormatException,OverflowException).System.MemoryExtensions (27 APIs)
All 27 methods with
IEqualityComparer<T>orIComparer<T>parameters were verified to already have proper XML documentation and required no changes:Contains,ContainsAny(4 overloads),ContainsAnyExcept(4 overloads)IndexOf(2 overloads),IndexOfAny(3 overloads)LastIndexOf(2 overloads),LastIndexOfAny(3 overloads)StartsWith,EndsWith,SequenceCompareToDocumentation Style
All documentation follows existing conventions:
<summary>,<param>,<returns>,<exception>)<paramref>and<see cref="..."/>references for clarityTesting
Once this PR is merged, the documentation can be ported to the dotnet-api-docs repository.
