使用.net 4.0 / Preview kit 2，我们可以为WCF REST生成帮助页面。
无论如何我们可以为MVC做同样的事情吗？
www.somewebsite.com/search/help
我可以创建帮助页面（视图）并公开它们。
我可以生成XSD架构并吐出为xml。
任何其他指导/建议？
我想生成类似的东西。
UriTemplate http://somewebsite.com/Search/
方法PUT
响应格式Xml
响应架构http://somewebsite.com/help/response/schema
响应示例http://somewebsite.com/help/response/example
更新
我可以使用下面的代码创建文档。
Route : somewebsite.com/Media/
HelpRoute : somewebsite.com/Media/Help (Append help to the parent route)
Add routes accordingly. See below example.
routes.MapRoute("Search",
"Search/Quick/",
new { controller = "Search", action = "Search" },
new { httpMethod = new HttpMethodConstraint("PUT") }
);
routes.MapRoute("SearchHelp",
"Search/Quick/Help",
new { controller = "Search", action = "Search" },
new { helpConstraint = new HelpConstraint { Help = true, SampleType = typeof(Search) } }
