Error compiling OpenSAML: invalid use of incomplete type 'struct xmltooling::CredentialResolver'

[Jim Faut]

I’ve been working on compiling the Shibboleth SP source on a RHEL 6 server.  I’ve been successful compiling all of the dependencies up to OpenSAML.  I’m stumped by this error.  I guess it’s not finding my xmltooling headers properly, but I don’t understand why that would be the case.

Following the documentation, I ran the following command:
./configure --with-log4shib=/opt/shibboleth-sp --prefix=/opt/shibboleth-sp -C

I see the following output from configure, which looks good:
checking for  log4shib... yes
checking for  xerces-c >= 3.2... yes
checking for  xml-security-c >= 2... yes
checking for  xmltooling >= 3... yes

Here is the error that I’m seeing when I run make.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
