//
-// 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.
+// The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
//
-// 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.
+// This file is distributed under the University of Illinois Open Source
+// License. See LICENSE.TXT for details.
//
-// 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.
