Hi,
With development fpc I get a lot of messages like:
fgl.pp(1112,1) Note: (3123) "inherited" not yet supported inside inline
procedure/function
Since most users can't do anything about the fgl inline modifier, this
message dilutes the output.
IMO such a message should be off by default.
What do you think?
The simplest solution is to remove the inline modifier, since it is clearly
superfluous for that routine.
According to Florian, inline should not be used to begin with, since the
compiler should be able to decide autonomously to inline a routine or not.
I don't agree with Florian here cause the compiler detecting an inlineable
routine that's declared in the interface section means an interface change
after the interface section was already parsed and thus leading to the
necessity to do recompilations which are already not working that well.
That's merely an implementation problem:
It does not mean that Florian's concept is flawed, it just means the
compiler is flawed.
In general, there is something to be said for the compiler determining what
the optimal way is to use a given routine. It simply should not need such a
hint.
Michael.
