I tried to give an explanation in my previous email:
The attempt to correctly generate multiple versions resulted in way to many header versions, such that the indexing was too slow and the database grew to unreasonable
sizes.
Therefore CDT does make the assumption that a header file with pragma once semantics produces the same macro-definitions and declarations whenever it is included
within one project.

So here is what I have found:
In CPreprocessor.detectIncludeGuard if an include guard is found, then pragmaOnce semantics are turned on, but what is causing this bug, is that trackSignificantMacros
is never turned on.
Why are significant macros not turned on just because an include guard is found? There are thousands of ways that this could result in the index being wrong.
In my opinion, track significant macros should always be turned on.
I guess common.h is identified as a file with pragma once semantics, and therefore the index will maintain only a single version of it. To verify this, you
can put some useless code before the include-guard. This should cause the indexer to create the two different versions for common.h
Why does this work like this?
When implementing the support for multiple versions we ended up with the following situation:
The attempt to correctly generate multiple versions resulted in way to many header versions, such that the indexing was too slow and the database grew to unreasonable
sizes.
Therefore CDT does make the assumption that a header file with pragma once semantics produces the same macro-definitions and declarations whenever it is included
within one project.
So, to overcome the indexing problem you need to find a way that prevents CDT from assigning the pragma once semantics property to this file.
Markus.
When processing b.c common.h is read from the index, and whatever version is read does not include the definition for SYMBOL.

The next step is to verify that two variants of common.h are written to the index. These two variants should be produced while indexing a.c and b.c respectively due to SYMBOL being defined in one case and undefined in the other.

Actually it does seem to be added.
In the function CPrepocessor.executeIfdef
There is a block of code:
macro= fMacroDictionary.get(namechars);
isTaken= (macro ==

if (macro == null) {
macro =
new UndefinedMacro(namechars);
fCurrentContext.significantMacroUndefined(namechars);
}
else {
fCurrentContext.significantMacroDefined(namechars);
}
It gets added in the else.

Do you know if SYMBOL is added to significant macros of common.h? If not, what condition prevents it from being added?

Ok,
So I have (mostly) solved the problem with the #pragma once. I will be pushing the code change soon,
but I have found another indexer issue.
Lets say I have file a.h
#ifndef
A_H_
#define
A_H_
#define
SYMBOL 1
#endif
And file common.h
#ifndef
COMMON_H_
#define
COMMON_H_
#if
!defined(SYMBOL)
#define
SYMBOL 2
#endif
#define
COMMON
#endif
If I have file a.c:
#include
"a.h"
#include
"common.h"
int*
a = SYMBOL;
and b.c:
#include
"common.h"
int*
b = SYMBOL;
b.c will say the SYMBOL is undefined.
This does not matter whether or not it is in the form of #ifndef SYMBOL or #if !defined(SYMBOL)
I will be filling a bug for this shortly, but in the meantime, do you have any ideas what could be
causing this?
Obviously the indexer thinks that symbol has already been defined, but from b.c, it clearly has not.

I agree that presence of any conditions around #pragma once should not prevent detection of #ifdef/#defne/#endif include guard. It's hard for me to give any practical suggesting
regarding the code, since I haven't seen it.
On Mon, Sep 30, 2013 at 12:09 PM, Joseph Henry <Joseph.Henry@xxxxxxx> wrote:
Well I did find one case in which this will not work, maybe you can help me with this.
So lets say that pragmaInclude.h was changed to this:
#if
_MSC_VER > 1000
#pragma
once
#endif
#ifndef
PRAGMAINCLUDE_H_
#define
PRAGMAINCLUDE_H_
#define
SYMBOL 0
#endif
The code that I wrote will not skip over the #pragma once in this case. The only variables that I
have in this function is the Lexer of the code, so I am not really sure how I can ascertain that I need to process this line or not.
Any Ideas?

Ok,
So I have implemented a solution that seems to solve this problem.
What I did was in IncludeGuardDetection.findIncludeGuard I added a some logic to skip the first #pragma
once (if it exists).
This seems to work without messing up anything.
What is the next step? How would I go about possibly contributing this fix?

When CPreprocessor encounters #include "header.h" in b.c it should include content from both, header.h

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
There seems to be a gap between discussion in this email and the actual reproducible case. Is the problem reproducible with stddef.h qouted in this email?

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.
