Right now, an empty string means "allow all includes" while a non-empty string means "allow only these includes", so there's no way to prohibit all includes except by listing them manually. I'm wondering whether you want to use a glob for allowed file names, which gives you extra flexibility. e.g., `*` allows all includes (default value), `foo.h` allows only <foo.h>, `experimental/*` allows all headers in the experimental directory, `cstd*` allows <cstdint> while prohibiting <stdint.h>, and the empty string will disallow all system headers. Perhaps you don't need that level of flexibility, but for the use cases I'm imagining it seems more user friendly to be able to write `cstd*` rather than manually listing out all the C++ headers explicitly. https://reviews.llvm.org/D43778 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
