Description:

I installed flatbuffers from the arch repo. But the generated header file doesn't compile.

The error is as following:

error: no matching function for call to ‘flatbuffers::Verifier::Verify(const flatbuffers::Vector<signed char>*)

And it compiles correctly after I cloned the master branch(https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/commit/c721009491dc8275052cf33f7334e015ed737927) of flatbuffers and re-installed.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install flatbuffers from arch repo
2. Run "flatc --cpp --scoped-enums <the_file_in_attachment>"
3. Compile a project with the generated header.
