OK, that is what I first thought. Then I thought it meant that for
that function, it works as if -inline was passed on the command line
(i.e. try to inline if possible, if not, don't worry about it). So you
are saying the first interpretation is correct?
That means pragma(inline) is essentially useless.
Well, if pragmas work with : like attributes (I don't know if they do),
then pragma(inline) would be a way to undo a pragma(inline, true) or
pragma(inline, false) on specific functions, similar to how many folks
want !final or final(false) after using final:, but if : doesn't work
with pragmas, then yeah, it's totally useless.
Without knowing the rules what does this do:
pragma(inline):
int foo()
{
return 1;
}
If anyone reads this and says he intuitively thinks "oh, that will mean
you have to pass -inline on the command line to get it inlined," I think
he is not being truthful.
