I get an incomplete type error when trying to compile my code. I know that it is related to includes, but my project is large and it uses several templates so I can't find which type is actually incomplete. The error message doesn't help either:

If I copy the conflictive code to a same file I can compile it. So I know that the code itself is OK, the problem is the way I instantiate it.

How can I trace the origin of this error? Is there any way to get the trace of the c++ compiler and preprocessor to get more informative messages?
