Is there something similar to clangd Include Cleaner?

[escherstair]

Inside vscode-cpptools is there a tool similar to clangd Include Cleaner?
I mean a tool that gives me advises on which include files are unused or unnecessary.
Thanks

@escherstair Yeah, you can try running the code analysis feature which runs clang-tidy (e.g. right-click Run Code Analysis on Active File), but you need to make sure misc-include-cleaner is set as an enabled clang-tidy check (e.g. C_Cpp.codeAnalysis.clangTidy.checks.enabled).

Hi @sean-mcmanus
one more question.
I see that clang-tidy gives me two kind of warnings:

• include header xxxxxx is not used directly
• no header providing "xxx" is directly included

Is it possible including/excluding each warning independently?

@escherstair There is not currently -- see the docs at https://releases.llvm.org/19.1.0/tools/clang/tools/extra/docs/clang-tidy/checks/misc/include-cleaner.html or https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/misc/include-cleaner.html . You could file a feature request for that at https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues

Thanks.
I saw that there is a similar feature request already open (I mean, a feature request for the same need).
