Standalone reproduction
The documentation for getCompileCommands() says:
Get an iterable object providing all the CompileCommands available to
build filename. Returns None if filename is not found in the database.
The actual behavior for the "not found" case differs in surprising ways:
1. When a regular source file (e.g. .cpp) is not found, an empty iterable is
returned instead of None
2. If a header file (e.g. .h) is not found, a guess at the compile command is
made and returned
I believe the documentation should be updated to reflect the actual behavior.</pre>
