C File Kinds

Use “c file” to match all C File kinds

Kind Name
C Code File
C Header File
C Unknown Header File
C Unresolved Header File

Code files are project files which are not included by any other files (typically *.c, *.cpp). Header files are project files which are included by at least one other file (typically *.h, *.hpp).

An unknown header file is a header file that has been included by another file but cannot be located.

#include “unk_file.h”            // C Unknown Header File 

An unresolved header file is an intermediate entity kind used by the parser and should never be visible at the API level. Any unresolved header file will either become a known header file (if the file can be located and parsed) or an unknown header file (if the file cannot be located) before the completion of the analysis run.
