responding to overcall

Doesn't this just depends on what your agreements are?

 

If you don't need H support to make a cuebid then you can do that, or you can bid 2 depending on what it means for you. Might be a bit uglier if you had QTx Ax AQT xxxxx but then you could lie about your club stop and bid 2NT.

 

Playing standard UK stuff I would just bid 2D.

Or if you play transfer advances, bidding 2 again works. This is a transfer to diamonds; you rebid 2 suggesting some support, but not good, and a reasonable hand that does not mind if partner bids on. The trouble with 2 as showing heart support is that it deflects from the possible alternative contracts in diamonds or NT.
