Cpp header in a C header

[Erez Geva]

Hi,

I have a C header that is used by both C and C++ code.
The C header includes a C++ header for C++ code using the '__cplusplus'
precompile:

ifdef __cplusplus

#include "cpp_only_header.h"

endif / __cplusplus /

But when I do a "c" check
cppcheck --language=c my_c.c

I get an error of "cpp_only_header.h" using c++.

I use
$ cppcheck --version
Cppcheck 2.3

Any advice?
Is this an issue?

Thanks
Erez

a quick hack that should work:

cppcheck -U__cplusplus my_c.c

Is this an issue?

I think it's a little issue. I have created https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/10989

I can't reproduce any problems.

Can you give some more details?

The __cplusplus is skipped when I run this command:

$ cppcheck 1.c
Checking 1.c ...
1.h:8:10: error: Division by zero. [zerodiv]
int y=100/0;
         ^

1.c:

#include "1.h"

1.h:

#ifdef __cplusplus
int x = 100/0;
#endif
int y = 100/0;
