+/// [sources] should be the complete set of source files for a build unit
+/// (including both library and part files).  All of the library files are
+/// compiled to resolved ASTs.
+///
+/// The compilation process is hermetic, meaning that the only files which will
+/// be read are those listed in [sources], [Options.inputSummaries], and
+/// [Options.sdkSummary].  If a source file attempts to refer to a file which is
+/// not obtainable from these paths, that will result in an error, even if the
+/// file exists on the filesystem.
+///
+/// Any `part` declarations found in [sources] must refer to part files which
+/// are also listed in [sources], otherwise an error results.  (It is not
+/// permitted to refer to a part file declared in another build unit).
