❔ Include .xml file in Nuget

Hey, I have two .NET Framework projects. One references (A) the other (B) as nuget package reference. When building A project I get B.dll in my bin/Debug folder buy noy B.xml file. Is there have .xml included as well?

Additionally I also noticed: nuget install ProjB => generated .xml file having ProjB nuget as package reference in project A => build project A => no .xml file? When navigating to nuget packages %userprofile%.nuget\packages\projectB\1.0.0\lib\net35 it contains projectB.xml file. So I assume that I need to adjust build configuration. Currently my .csproj has following:

<PackageReference Include="Reference.SET.Testware.TestActions.Ratatosk" Version="1.33.16">
  <PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
  <IncludeAssets>runtime; build; native; contentfiles; analyzers; buildtransitive; **/*.xml</IncludeAssets>
</PackageReference>

<PackageReference Include="Reference.SET.Testware.TestActions.Ratatosk" Version="1.33.16">
  <PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
  <IncludeAssets>runtime; build; native; contentfiles; analyzers; buildtransitive; **/*.xml</IncludeAssets>
</PackageReference>

Looks like nothing has happened here. I will mark this as stale and this post will be archived until there is new activity.

you may need to change the value of PrivateAssets instead, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/package-references-in-project-files#controlling-dependency-assets

since I'm understanding that the nuget package ships with the XML file, and it isn't being generated, is that right?

Was this issue resolved? If so, run /close - otherwise I will mark this as stale and this post will be archived until there is new activity.
