+  /// \p CrossTUDir directory, called \p IndexName. In case the declaration is
+  /// found in the index the corresponding AST file will be loaded and the
+  /// definition of the function will be merged into the original AST using
+  /// the AST Importer. The declaration with the definition will be returned.
+  ///
+  /// Note that the AST files should also be in the \p CrossTUDir.
