self-contained headers - sthrjo - 05-12-2011

There is no rule in MISRA for header files to be self-contained, is there? Is there a reason for this decision? Other rule-sets has this rule, allegedly "Goddard Space Flight Center" has a rule-set for C.

This issue was not considered for MISRA C++:2008.

Note that many of the guidelines prevent the issues that can arise if a header file is included more than once.
