I think that idea comes from the following concept: if each class has a class.hxx for its interface and a class.cxx for its implementation, then in case class.cxx includes class.hxx as its first include, we get compile-time verification that the header is self-contained. An other problem is when a header includes an other header without a good reason, but we fear to remove that, as adjusting clients would be a considerable amount of work. See e.g. 6ff2d84ade299cb3d14d4110e4cf1a4b8070c030 for sal/log.hxx and the string classes. In any case, thanks for the experiment, now we have numbers that also say that the current situation is sub-optimal. ;-) Regards, Miklos
