+"""Generate Blink V8 bindings (.h and .cpp files).
+
+Input: An object of class IdlDocument, representing an IDL interface X
+Output: V8X.h and V8X.cpp
+
+FIXME: Currently a stub, as part of landing the parser and code generator
+incrementally. Only implements generation of dummy .cpp and .h files.
+
+The plan is as follows.

Shall we put this comment in idl_compiler.py since idl_compiler.py is a driver
script?

[Nils Barth (inactive), 2013/07/10 02:38:32]

Good point (overview in main file); done!

+We will temporarily have two build flows (see ../derived_sources.gyp):
+[1] Perl: deprecated_generate_bindings.pl, which calls:
+    deprecated_idl_parser.pm => deprecated_code_generator_v8.pm
+[2] Python: idl_compiler.py, which calls:
+    frontend (lexer => parser => build_ir.py) => code_generator_v8.py
+
+We will move IDL files from the Perl build flow [1] to the Python build flow [2]
+incrementally.
+First we will land the build changes and idl_compiler.py (in one CL).
+Next we will land the full frontend (in one CL), which parses all IDL files.
+Finally we will incrementally land the code generator (in several CLs),
+moving IDL files to the Python build flow as the code generator is completed.
