+     *
+     * A @c Value_Field contains the corresponding name and pointer to the
+     * @c CORBA::TypeCode for a given OMG IDL defined type.  For
+     * example, the fields in following OMG IDL structure:
+     *
+     * \code
+     *   struct Foo
+     *   {
+     *     long   the_number;
+     *     string the_string;
+     *   };
+     * \endcode
+     *
+     * would be represented using the following statically instantiated
+     * @c TAO::TypeCode::Value_Field array:
+     *
+     * \code
+     *   TAO::TypeCode::Value_Field<char const *> _tao_fields_Foo[] =
+     *     {
+     *       { "the_number", &CORBA::_tc_long },
+     *       { "the_string", &CORBA::_tc_string },
+     *     };
+     * \endcode
+     *
+     * The template parameter @a STRING_TYPE is either @c char
+     * @c const @c * or @c CORBA::String_var.  The latter is only used
+     * when creating @c CORBA::tk_value or @c CORBA::tk_event
+     * @c TypeCodes dynamically, such as through the TypeCodeFactory.
