Description

In the following code, when generated with thrift -gen html one will find that the link from Placeorder to FurtherRequirements is broken, because it points to a struct instead of a typedef.

enum Requirement {
  FreeCoffee = 0,
  TakeCreditCards = 1,
}

typedef list< Requirement>  FurtherRequirements

struct PlaceOrder
  3 : FurtherRequirements FurtherRequirements
}
