![]() is important because it's fairly common for headers (especially system headers) to want to provide only those typedefs needed for that particular header, based on some guard macro, e.g., #ifndef _SIZE_T #define _SIZE_T typedef long size_t; #endif which is repeated in a number of headers. The guard macro protects against duplicate definitions. However, this means that only the first occurrence of this pattern actually defines size_t, so the submodule corresponding to this header has the only visible definition. If a user then imports a different submodule from the same module, size_t will be known but not visible, and therefore cannot be used. By allowing redefinition of typedefs, each header that wants to define size_t can do so independently, so it will be available in the corresponding submodules. llvm-svn: 147775 |
