NIM0002: Missing help content

NIM0002 reports a driver item that is missing authored help content — most commonly a missing summary. Summaries appear in the generated help, in XML IntelliSense, and elsewhere, so a missing one leaves a gap in the documentation that end users see.

Nimbus flags items that have no summary, including types, their members (methods, properties, events), parameters and return values, enumeration members, and — for IVI-C drivers — functions and attributes.

Open the item’s Help Editor in the Driver Designer and fill in the Summary field (and any other expected content). See Using the Help Editor.

Set the NIM0002Severity property to control how this diagnostic is treated (None, Information, Warning, or Error). It defaults to Error in Release builds and Warning otherwise — so a release build fails until every documented item has a summary. To stop checking for missing content, set it to None.
