+This attribute can be applied to a union to change the behaviour of calls to
+functions that have an argument with a transparent union type. The compiler
+behaviour is changed in the following manner:
+
+- A value whose type is any member of the transparent union can be passed as an
+argument without the need to cast that value.
+
+- The argument is passed to the function using the calling convention of the
+first member of the transparent union. Consequently, all the members of the
+transparent union should have the same calling convention as its first member.
+
+Transparent unions are not supported in C++.
