我使用。h，因为这是微软使用的，也是他们的代码生成器创建的。没必要违背常理。

幸运的是，这很简单。

如果您使用c++，您应该使用.hpp扩展名，并且您应该使用.h表示C或混合使用C和c++。

正如这里许多人已经提到的，我也更喜欢使用.hpp来处理使用模板类/函数的纯头文件库。我更喜欢使用.h作为头文件，附带.cpp源文件或共享或静态库。

我开发的大多数库都是基于模板的，因此只需要头文件，但在编写应用程序时，我倾向于将声明与实现分开，最终使用.h和.cpp文件

下面是C和c++头文件命名不同的几个原因:

Automatic code formatting, you might have different guidelines for formatting C and C++ code. If the headers are separated by extension you can set your editor to apply the appropriate formatting automatically Naming, I've been on projects where there were libraries written in C and then wrappers had been implemented in C++. Since the headers usually had similar names, i.e. Feature.h vs Feature.hpp, they were easy to tell apart. Inclusion, maybe your project has more appropriate versions available written in C++ but you are using the C version (see above point). If headers are named after the language they are implemented in you can easily spot all the C-headers and check for C++ versions.

记住，C不是c++，除非你知道你在做什么，否则混合和匹配是非常危险的。适当地命名源代码可以帮助您区分语言。

我一直认为.hpp头文件是.h和.cpp文件的混合…还包含实现细节的标头。

通常，当我看到(并使用).hpp作为扩展名时，没有相应的.cpp文件。正如其他人所说，这不是一个严格的规则，只是我倾向于使用.hpp文件。

Bjarne Stroustrup和Herb Sutter在他们的c++核心指南(https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppCoreGuidelines.md#S-source)中对这个问题有一个声明，该指南也提到了标准扩展(c++ 11, c++ 14等)的最新变化。

SF.1: Use a .cpp suffix for code files and .h for interface files if your Y project doesn't already follow another convention Reason It's a longstanding convention. But consistency is more important, so if your project uses something else, follow that. Note This convention reflects a common use pattern: Headers are more often shared with C to compile as both C++ and C, which typically uses .h, and it's easier to name all headers .h instead of having different extensions for just those headers that are intended to be shared with C. On the other hand, implementation files are rarely shared with C and so should typically be distinguished from .c files, so it's normally best to name all C++ implementation files something else (such as .cpp). The specific names .h and .cpp are not required (just recommended as a default) and other names are in widespread use. Examples are .hh, .C, and .cxx. Use such names equivalently. In this document, we refer to .h and .cpp > as a shorthand for header and implementation files, even though the actual extension may be different. Your IDE (if you use one) may have strong opinions about suffices.

我不是这种惯例的大粉丝，因为如果你正在使用像boost这样的流行库，你的一致性已经被打破了，你最好使用.hpp。
