Hi,
when using "inline" on a procedure or function, does it completely avoid
the call by copying anything inside the "begin ... end" block to the
right place?
Example:
function anythingFunc(v: integer):real; inline;
begin
... some calculations ...
end;
function TMyObject.callAnything(v: integer):real;
begin
result := anythingFunc(v);
end
This will result in two levels of calls (one for the method of TMyObject
and one from inside the method to the global function) without inlining.
I assume with inline on it is only *one* call, which would be a speed
improvement especially when called often.
Can someone confirm I understand this correctly?
TIA,
Marc
