std::size_t Which header file?

[JKop]

I'm writing a ".cpp" and ".hpp" combination.


The ".hpp" just contains one sole function declaration.


The ".cpp" makes use of the function "std::strlen" and the type
"std::size_t".


I'm wondering what header file should I include to use "std::strlen" and
which header file should I include to use "std::size_t" ?

<cstddef> for std::size_t and <cstring> for std::strlen.

<cstddef> for std::size_t and <cstring> for std::strlen.

See, I told you so. There is a problem with using #includes to simulate
what are called packages in UML terms. I actually presented size_t as an
example.

<cstring> handles both.
