Compile fails with undeclared type 'SwsContext'

[Ian Bytchek]

I'm attempting to use SwsContext in a Swift project, compilation fails saying that 'SwsContext' is undeclared. Apparently SwsContext is declared, but in swscale_internal.h, which is not installed with make install. Public definitions should be moved into swscale.h or into a header that would also be installed.

I configure and build libs using the below:

./configure \
    --prefix="…" \
    --disable-doc \
    --disable-programs \
    --disable-iconv \
    --disable-securetransport \
    --disable-audiotoolbox \
    --disable-swresample \
    --disable-avdevice \
    --target-os=darwin \
    --arch=i386 \
    --arch=x86_64 \
    --cc=clang \
    --disable-everything \
    --enable-protocol=file \
    --enable-protocol=cache \
    --enable-encoder=gif \
    --enable-decoder=gif \
    --enable-muxer=gif \
    --enable-demuxer=gif

make
make install

How can we reproduce the issue?

SwsContext is an opaque struct, and its fields are not to be accessed directly. That's why it's defined in an internal header.
