Much of it's processing is specific to &kde; sources and so it might not work so well with sources for non-&kde; applications. The following problems are identified by fixincludes: Including headers that are no longer supported but which exist for compatibility with older Qt/KDE versions; Including the same file multiple times. There is also an experimental mode which tries removing each #include one at a time (with a few exceptions) to see whether the source still compiles. Note that this experimental mode will modify the original sources. By default the sources will not be modified; the identified problems will simply be written to standard output. The list of C++ sources to examine should be given on the command-line. If no files are given, all C++ sources in or beneath the current directory will be examined (with the exception of directories whose Makefile.am contains -UKDE_NO_COMPAT) This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit. -v, --verbose Verbose mode. Additional debugging output is written to standard output. -e, --experimental Experimental mode, as described above in detail. Note that this option implies --modify. -m, --modify As well as writing messages to standard output, actually modify the original sources to fix any problems that were found. fixincludes was written by Dirk Mueller mueller@kde.org.
