Local types window

 Action    name: OpenLocalTypes
 
Each database has a local type library embedded into it. This type library (til) is used to store types that are local to the current database. Usually they are created by parsing a header file.

This command opens the local types window. The user can menipulate local types here. If the edited type corresponds to an idb type (struct or enum), then the corresponding type will be automatically synchronized. If the user modifies an idb type in the struct/enum windows, the corresponding local type will be updated too.

Each type in the local til has an ordinal number and may have a name.

Be careful when deleting existing types because if there are references to them, they will be invalidated.
