Forward declaration is not a substitute for Header file inclusion. As the name itself implies, forward declaration is just aDeclarationand not a definition. So, you will declare saying the compiler that it is a class and I just declaring it here and will provide you the definition when am ...
"Header files are not definitions - they are declarations" - they're typically a mix: for things that take executable space they tend to be declarations, but for things like classes, templates, inline functions - definitions. Forward declarations are - IMHO - bad practice - you should prefer ...
There's no reason either header should be including the other. Player.h doesn't need to reference header.h at all. And header.h can get away with a forward declaration of the player class: player.h 12345678910 #ifndef PLAYER_H #define PLAYER_H // #include "Header.h" <- kill this ...
To achieve this, the header file must itself contain other necessary headers and/or forward declarations. One reason this rule is desirable is that it gets rid of situations where successful compilation depends on the order of the #include's in one or more .cpp files. However, in the...
I'm not sure why the code you show should give the "includes itself" error, but header files should always contain an "include guard" or "#pragma once" statement.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Include_guardhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pragma_once...
I have tested both the header and implementation, and either method works as expected in Visual Studio, no glitches or wrong output. I'm almost positive I could move exporting from the individual functions up to the namespace declaration, I haven't tried that yet. Later I should do that ...

Yes: the flag -header-insertion=never. (You can configure clangd arguments in the preferences). It should already be suppressed if there's a forward declaration in the current file, so please file a bug if you see that. There's a feature request for a less-aggressive insertion policy (v...
