I am new to this list, so please excuse any obvious mistakes. I am trying to check if two types are equal or one is derived from the other within the compiler. One of the types is a struct that is defined under the std namescope. How do I search for a "node" that is a TYPE_DECL of the structure that I want? I would like to search for the TYPE_DECL of "struct foo" in the tree std_node.
Just to be clear, given "std" and given "foo" you want to find std::foo, right? That's the question I previously answered.
Or, is your question, given the shape expressed by tree bar (a TYPE_DECL), find a "foo" with the same shape?
The second question is answered by looping over all the members of std, and checking each one for the right shape.
