When CPreprocessor encounters #include "header.h" in b.c it should include content from both, header.h and stddef.h. header.h may be included from the index or
as a source.
But it does not. When header.h is read from the index, it contains nothing, except what is defined in header.h
Lets say that header.h looks like this.
#ifndef _HEADER
#define _HEADER
#include “stddef.h”
#endif
And lets say stddef.h looks like this
#pragma once
#define NULL 0
In the function processInclusionFromIndex in CPrepocessor, the InternalFileContent is read from the index. When it calls getMacroDefinitions(), this returns
only 1 definition which is _HEADER. If the #pragma once is not there this returns 2 definitions which are _HEADER and NULL

Honestly I am not really sure.
This is what I saw when stepping though the code in the debugger.
File stddef.h has this structure:
#pragma once
#ifndef __STD
#define __STD
…..
#endif
I have a File with the following structure:
a.c
|_ stddef.h
|_ header.h
|_ stddef.h
and there is another File with the following structure:
b.c
|_ header.h
| |_ stddef.h
Now this is what I know happens:
When b.c is parsed, it finds the #include “header.h” and executes that statement.
When it looks for header.h it finds it, and its location is in the index.
Now header.h is included from the index, but it does not contain any instance of stddef.h.
A header stored in the index never contains content from another header. Each header is stored separately. When CPreprocessor encounters #include "header.h" in b.c it should include content from both, header.h and stddef.h. header.h may
be included from the index or as a source. This depends on significant macros of header.h.
What I don’t understand is why (or where) header.h is stored in the index without any instance of
stddef.h. It seems like a #pragma once should be treated just like a #ifndef #define #endif block. So from b.c since this file has not been encountered, it should be included.

Ok,
After further looking into this, is seems that these are 2 separate issues. If you look at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=413768#c2 it shows a use case that supposedly should work, but that is the exact use case that is broken for me (with one minor change). I will explain.
Basically I have this situation:
a.c
|_ stddef.h (version S1)
|_ header.h
|_ stddef.h (version S2)
|_ use declaration found in S1
And these another source file that contains header.h
b.c
|_ header.h
| |_ stddef.h (version S1)
|_ use declaration found in S1
The problem comes into play where stddef.h has a #pragma once in it at the top of the file like:
If stddef.h had #pragma once, there would not be S2, would it?
Did you mean something like
a.c
|_ stddef.h (version S1)
|_ header.h
|_ stddef.h (version S1)
|_ use declaration found in S1
b.c
|_ header.h
| |_ stddef.h (version S2)
|_ use declaration found in S2
?
#pragma once
#ifndef __STDDEF__
#define __STDDEF__
…….
#define NULL 0
……
#endif
The #pragma once is what is causing the problem. Since it is outside of the #ifndef block, it seems
like the version of stddef.h that is included in header.h is just simply not put in the index. So from b.c, the definition of NULL cannot be found.
Maybe this explains my problem a bit more.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Joseph Henry.

Hi all,
I have filed bug
417193, which seems to be related to bug
413768.
I have not gotten much response on either of these bugs and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction to fix this. I really need this bug fixed so I have been
looking into it, but cant seem to make any headway.
If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great.
