+//===-- llvm/AbstractTypeUser.h - AbstractTypeUser Interface -----*- C++ -*--=//
+//
+// The AbstractTypeUser class is an interface to be implemented by classes who
+// could possible use an abstract type.  Abstract types are denoted by the
+// isAbstract flag set to true in the Type class.  These are classes that
+// contain an Opaque type in their structure somehow.
+//
+// Classes must implement this interface so that they may be notified when an
+// abstract type is resolved.  Abstract types may be resolved into more concrete
+// types through: linking, parsing, and bytecode reading.  When this happens,
+// all of the users of the type must be updated to reference the new, more
+// concrete type.  They are notified through the AbstractTypeUser interface.
+//
+// In addition to this, AbstractTypeUsers must keep the use list of the
+// potentially abstract type that they reference up-to-date.  To do this in a
+// nice, transparent way, the PATypeHandle class is used to hold "Potentially
+// Abstract Types", and keep the use list of the abstract types up-to-date.
