C++ extensions

Question

Does ".h" extension work in Dev C++ and Visual studio code ?

Answer 1

codecraft , according to c++ standards,

standard c++ headers(like iostream.h) would use include directives without ".h" extensions (decision was taken around 2002)

So if you are using a standard compiler then ideally you should not be able to do it ( some generate a warning while others generate error )

Answer 2

codecraft vscode is a text-editor. It is used just to write to code. Install c/c++ extension for vscode to get syntax highlighting. It depends on your compiler weather ".h" will work or not.

Answer 3

How exactly you want to use it ?

1) while including a header in your program file ? ( User-defined or sdandard ?)
2) or while creating a header file of your own ?
