Re: C++ General: What are C++ Headers?
In addition:
On certain compilers, for example, you may find 'iostream' as well as 'iostream.h'. As pointed out above including 'iostream' keeps the members in the std namespace whereas usage of 'iostream.h' adds up the members into the global namespace. This may lead to ambiguities that the namespaces were designed to avoid. This is another small reason in addition to others mentioned above for not including the '.h' extension headers.
