-/// StructType - Class to represent struct types, both normal and packed.
-/// Besides being optionally packed, structs can be either "anonymous" or may
-/// have an identity.  Anonymous structs are uniqued by structural equivalence,
-/// but types are each unique when created, and optionally have a name.
+/// StructType - Class to represent struct types.  There are two different kinds
+/// of struct types: Literal structs and Identified structs.
+///
+/// Literal struct types (e.g. { i32, i32 }) are uniqued structurally, and must
+/// always have a body when created.  You can get one of these by using one of
+/// the StructType::get() forms.
+///  
+/// Identified structs (e.g. %foo or %42) may optionally have a name and are not
+/// uniqued.  The names for identified structs are managed at the LLVMContext
+/// level, so there can only be a single identified struct with a given name in
+/// a particular LLVMContext.  Identified structs may also optionally be opaque
+/// (have no body specified).  You get one of these by using one of the
+/// StructType::create() forms.
+///
+/// Independent of what kind of struct you have, the body of a struct type are
+/// laid out in memory consequtively with the elements directly one after the
+/// other (if the struct is packed) or (if not packed) with padding between the
+/// elements as defined by TargetData (which is required to match what the code
+/// generator for a target expects).
