+/**
+ @file forge.h An API for constructing LV2 atoms.
+
+ This file provides an API for constructing Atoms which makes it relatively
+ simple to build nested atoms of arbitrary complexity without requiring
+ dynamic memory allocation.
+
+ The API is based on successively appending the appropriate pieces to build a
+ complete Atom. The size of containers is automatically updated. Functions
+ that begin a container return (via their frame argument) a stack frame which
+ must be popped when the container is finished.
+
+ All output is written to a user-provided buffer or sink function. This
+ makes it possible to create atoms on the stack, on the heap, in LV2 port
+ buffers, in a ringbuffer, or elsewhere, all using the same API.
+
+ This entire API is realtime safe if used with a buffer or a realtime safe
+ sink, except lv2_atom_forge_init() which is only realtime safe if the URI
+ map function is.
+
+ Note these functions are all static inline, do not take their address.
+
+ This header is non-normative, it is provided for convenience.
