[cfe-dev] Getting past error: member access into incomplete type

[Eric Schulte]

Hi,

I'm working on a small AST-manipulation tool built upon clang [1].  I
had an implementation which worked but didn't deal well with included
headings.  I've since re-written this using the Tooling interface,
however using the example code from [2] I run into the following "member
access into incomplete type" error on an ASTContext [3].

It looks like I could solve this error by stepping back to previous
versions of clang and llvm [4], but I'd prefer to fix this so that it
works with the current code and moving forward.  The broken file is at,
https://github.com/eschulte/clang-mutate/blob/master/mutate-tool.cpp

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
