Advising the addition of code comments
Using Metalama
Is there a way to advise adding code comments? For example, when I advise a method and inject a new attribute, I would also like to add additional xml code documentation. Here's the exact scenario.
[ApiController]
public class MyController : ControllerBase {
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Get() {
return "FooBar";
}
}
Using a project fabric, I have advised all route methods should introduce [ProducesResponseTypeAttribute(StatusCodes.Status500InternalServerError)]. I would additionally like to introduce code comments to add '''/// <response code="500">It's not you, it's us.</response>'''. I've searched through documentation and couldn't find anything about injecting code comments. Did I miss this, or is it a possible feature request? Thanks!

No, there is no way for an aspect to contribute XML code doc at the moment.
