type checker in Clang

Clang Frontend
#1

Dear All:

I want to look into the type checking process in the clang. Can any body guide me where to start?

Thanks in advance.

#2

The Sema object, whose code is in lib/Sema/*, contains the vast majority of Clang's type-checking logic. I suggest picking some simple language construct and looking at how it is handled in Sema.

Right. I normally do an assignment which causes error. Then set breakpoint at clang::Sema::Diag and
go from there backwards.
