AUTOSAR C++14 Rule A3-1-2
Header files, that are defined locally in the project, shall have a file name
extension of one of: .h, .hpp or
.hxx
Description
Rule Definition
Header files, that are defined locally in the project, shall have a file name
extension of one of: .h, .hpp or
.hxx.
Rationale
Developers and code reviewers expect a header file to have one of the standard file name extensions.
Polyspace Implementation
The rule checker flags files included with the #include directive
with names that have an extension other than .h, .hpp
or .hxx. For
instance:
#include <header.c> #include <header2.cpp>
<...>, if you use "..." around the file, the
checker also flags the case where the file does not have an extension at all.The checker does not flag the following inclusions:
Files included with the
Include (-include)option.Included files that do not exist.
The checker is case-insensitive.
Troubleshooting
If you expect a rule violation but Polyspace® does not report it, see Diagnose Why Coding Standard Violations Do Not Appear as Expected.
