<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">The background for this question is, that I we have a tool that creates C code – then it runs Clang-Cl as an external tool to create object files. The user however will not have a full
C/C++ development environment so we planed on only “shipping” the needed header files. For some tests I used all Visual Studio headers and everything compiled fine – I simply added all paths with -I<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">So if I have a ‘duplicated’ header, would it be better to use the Clang header? Or should I include both header in the search path?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">If you use clang-cl, it should automatically use some combination of both sets of headers. You can see in vadefs.h, for example, `#include_next` is used like so:<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">#include_next <vadefs.h><o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">So both clang and MSVC's vadefs.h header is used.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">What David said is correct. The headers that clang ships tend to define things that are tightly coupled to the compiler. See the way clang implements the intel intrinsics, for example, by looking at the mmintrin.h header.<o:p></o:p></p>
