Comment author: @gasche It looks like the location information would have to be added in the typedtree first, to type_kind in typing/types.ml, as this is where ocamldoc gets its information about record fields. |

Bug description
Hi,
for more precise error messages, it would be nice to have *_loc fields in Odoc_info.Type.record_field and variant_constructor.
I would further suggest to tell in the compilation instructions for custom generators (in the manual) that "-I +compiler-libs" is needed, when accessing location information. I would actually prefer that Location.t is reexported somewhere, such that "-I +compiler-libs" is not needed.
Bye,
Hendrik
