repro_instructions.md

1. Put these files in a folder.
2. Build latest YCM with install.sh --clang-completer.
3. Open test.cpp.
4. Wait for YCM to ask you is it OK to load the .ycm_extra_conf.py file. Click Load.
5. Type in foos. after the line that declares the vector or mappy. after the line that declares that map. You should see completions after typing the dot; if not, then that's the bug.

test.cpp

#include <vector>
#include <unordered_map>

struct Foo {
  int x;
  int y;
  int z;
};

int main() {
  std::vector<Foo> foos;
  foos.push_back(Foo{1, 2, 3});
  std::unordered_map<int, Foo> mappy;
  return 0;
}
