+/** is the UNO representation of the Automation type <code>DATE</code>.
+    <p>
+    A <code>DATE</code> could actually be represented as `double` in
+    UNO and therefore a typedef from `double` to a date type would
+    do. But a typedef cannot be expressed in all language bindings. In the
+    case where no typedefs are supported the actual type is used. That is, a
+    typedef'd date type would be represented as <code>double</code> in Java.
+    The information that the `double` is a date type is lost.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    When calling Automation objects from UNO the distinction between
+    `double` and date type is important. Therefore Date
+    is declared as struct.
+    </p>
