panic: interface conversion: types.Type is types.IntType, not *types.StructType

[prologic]

I tried to transpile some C source from this project.

Getting this panic:

/Users/prologic/tmp/genext2fs # cxgo file genext2fs.c
panic: interface conversion: types.Type is types.IntType, not *types.StructType

Thank you for reporting it! I updated a few headers and you should now have an initial transpilation of that repo using this config and cxgo v0.3.5.

As a rule of thumb, please do not symlink include - it's always better if cxgo uses it's own headers. This way it could replace usages of those functions with Go equivalents (or wrappers). If it doesn't find something - you could quickly add a stub like this.

I have the same problem, but I don't know which struct or int define cause this panic, can you give me some advertise?

@sunburst-yz is the repo you are working on public?
