I have "inline" on both places also on declaration
and any function or method that uses it (in the same unit) needs to
come afterwards
Yes it comes afterwards
if you want it to be inlined (for other units that doesn't matter as
long as you don't have circular dependencies, cause then things get
messy). On addition to that "inline" is only a hint for the compiler,
so there might be cases when the compiler decides not to inline.
Oh and it obviously won't work with virtual methods.
In my case it is not virtual method.
But I forgot to mention, that it is method of generic object:
generic T2DArray<T> = object
...
public
constructor Init(oobMode: TOutOfBoundsMode); overload;
constructor Init(x,y: integer); overload;
...
function Data(x,y: integer): PElement; overload; inline;
end;
So what can be a case, that method is not inlined, can it be track down
or is there something which I can do to force inlining ?
