External header guards is not really the problem with makedepend. The problem is that makedepend's running time is O(n^2) with n being the number of source files in OOo. This is -after- the fixes, previously it was more like O(n^3). Fixing this to run in O(n) means either adding a new dependency type to dmake or using jam instead..
The external include guards are barely some smaller constant factor for the O(n^2), if even that .. So IMHO we can happily ignore makedepend in terms of deciding to strip out the external guards .. :-) Kai On 12/20/06, Stephan Bergmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
If I remember correctly, I checked with a degenerate case with 100 headers where each header includes all the others, and one cxx that includes all headers. I am not sure this scenario improves when calling makedepend once for all cxx combined (of which there is only one in this case, anyway) instead of once for each cxx individually.
