谷歌的cppclean(链接到:下载，文档)可以找到几种类型的c++问题，现在它可以找到多余的#includes。

还有一个基于clang的工具(包括您所使用的工具)可以做到这一点。include-what-you-use甚至可以建议前向声明(因此您不必#include那么多)，并可选地为您清理#includes。

当前版本的Eclipse CDT也内置了这个功能:在Source菜单下单击Organize Includes将按字母顺序排列#include，添加Eclipse认为您正在使用的任何标题，但不直接包括它们，并注释掉它认为您不需要的任何标题。然而，这个特性并不是100%可靠。

结束这个讨论:c++预处理器是图灵完成的。包含是否是多余的，这是一个语义属性。因此，由Rice定理可知，包含是否多余是不可判定的。不可能有一个程序(总是正确地)检测包含是否多余。

CScout重构浏览器可以检测C(不幸的是不是c++)代码中多余的include指令。你可以在这篇期刊文章中找到它如何工作的描述。

The problem with detecting superfluous includes is that it can't be just a type dependency checker. A superfluous include is a file which provides nothing of value to the compilation and does not alter another item which other files depend. There are many ways a header file can alter a compile, say by defining a constant, redefining and/or deleting a used macro, adding a namespace which alters the lookup of a name some way down the line. In order to detect items like the namespace you need much more than a preprocessor, you in fact almost need a full compiler.

Lint更多的是一个样式检查器，当然不会有这个完整的功能。

我想你会发现检测多余include的唯一方法是删除、编译和运行套件。

这里有一个简单的暴力方法来识别多余的头包含。它并不完美，但消除了“明显的”不必要的包含。清除这些代码对清理代码大有帮助。

这些脚本可以直接在GitHub上访问。

有两种类型的多余的#include文件:

头文件实际上不需要 模块(.c， .cpp) 模块需要头文件 而是不止一次，直接或间接地。

根据我的经验，有两种方法可以很好地检测到它:

gcc -H or cl.exe /showincludes (resolve problem 2) In real world, you can export CFLAGS=-H before make, if all the Makefile's not override CFLAGS options. Or as I used, you can create a cc/g++ wrapper to add -H options forcibly to each invoke of $(CC) and $(CXX). and prepend the wrapper's directory to $PATH variable, then your make will all uses you wrapper command instead. Of course your wrapper should invoke the real gcc compiler. This tricks need to change if your Makefile uses gcc directly. instead of $(CC) or $(CXX) or by implied rules. You can also compile a single file by tweaking with the command line. But if you want to clean headers for the whole project. You can capture all the output by: make clean make 2>&1 | tee result.txt PC-Lint/FlexeLint(resolve problem both 1 and 2) make sure add the +e766 options, this warning is about: unused header files. pclint/flint -vf ... This will cause pclint output included header files, nested header files will be indented appropriately.
