Add missing includes / don't include standard headers in namespaces

mkauf commented 1 year ago

There are some missing includes. On some systems, these includes may not be necessary (because they are contained in other system headers).

I have found these while compiling Envoy proxy on Fedora 38.

vm_id_handle.h:

#include <string>
#include <string_view>

wasm_vm.h:

#include <string_view>

I also got other strange compile errors when compiling Envoy proxy:

In file included from external/proxy_wasm_cpp_host/src/null/null.cc:17:

  typedef basic_string<char>    string;

I think that happens because the header proxy_wasm_common.h contains these lines:

#include <cstdint>
#include <string>

And in files like wasm.h, the file proxy_wasm_common.h is included inside a C++ namespace:

namespace proxy_wasm {

#include "proxy_wasm_common.h"

...
}

-> so the header <string> is included inside the namespace proxy_wasm. That's bad practice and probably that's also the cause of the build problem.

also ran into it:

proxy-wasm / proxy-wasm-cpp-host
