[llvm-dev] error: incomplete type 'llvm::CallInst' named in nested name specifier

[Abid Malik via llvm-dev]

Hello,

I am trying to write a pass. Here is a short and simplified version of it
bool MyPass:: runOnFunction( Function &F){
        errs() << "Visiting function " << F.getName();
        errs() << "\n";

        for (auto &BB : F) {
                for (auto &II : BB) {
                        if (CallInst *c = dyn_cast <CallInst> (&II)){

                        }
                }
        }
        return false; // We did not change anything in the IR
}

The code is straight forward and very much in line with the examples LLVM
pass on the web.

However, when I compile it, I am getting the following error.
