| 8.5 Required Rule-5.6 |
A typedef name shall be a unique identifier |
A typedef name shall be unique across all name spaces and translation units. Multiple declarations of the same typedef name are only permitted by this rule if the type definition is made in a header file and that header file is included in multiple source files.
The typedef name may be the same as the structure, union or enumeration tag name associated with the typedef.
| Implemented by QAC messages: |

| 3448 |
Declaration of typedef '%s' is not in a header file although it is used in a definition or declaration with external linkage. |
Typedef 应该定义在头文件里，被其他文件引用时，使用#include包含这个头文件
如果用Typedef 定义的变量声明具有外部链接属性的变量或者函数，应该把Typedef 放在头文件
