ida-minsc: Unable to set a structure member's custom type, it always is 'int'

@arizvisa hi, I have to come and ask you questions, I don’t know what went wrong, I can’t set the member’s custom type , it awaly is ‘int’:

import idaapi
import idc


st1 =structure.by_name('TTDBTextInfoGroup')
struct_name = 'TTDBTextInfoGroup*'
f1 = st1.members.by(offset=0)

print f1.typeinfo.dstr()
ordinal = f1.typeinfo.get_ordinal()
f1.typeinfo.set_numbered_type(idaapi.cvar.idati,ordinal,BTF_STRUCT, struct_name)
print f1.typeinfo.dstr()

Okay. Try PR #63 again. I also cleaned up the typeinfo so that it’s properly emitted when displaying the structure member or listing them with struc.list().

Ahh. Okay. Seems like IDA 6.8’s API is completely different from IDA 7.x’s. Lemme see what IDA 6.8 expects you to do here and create a PR.
