+/* * \page gdbtypes GDB Types
+
+ GDB represents all the different kinds of types in programming
+ languages using a common representation defined in gdbtypes.h.
+
+ The main data structure is main_type; it consists of a code (such
+ as TYPE_CODE_ENUM for enumeration types), a number of
+ generally-useful fields such as the printable name, and finally a
+ field type_specific that is a union of info specific to particular
+ languages or other special cases (such as calling convention).
+
+ The available type codes are defined in enum type_code. The enum
+ includes codes both for types that are common across a variety
+ of languages, and for types that are language-specific.
+
+ Most accesses to type fields go through macros such as TYPE_CODE
+ and TYPE_FN_FIELD_CONST. These are written such that they can be
+ used as both rvalues and lvalues.
