Hmm, which compilers do this? Let's not forget that the normal aproach when compiling C/C++ is to compile the source files one at a time in isolation. In those circumstances, you can't inline much at all, even if your compiler would be willing to do so. >> JIT-compilers for Java see the whole application and can >>for example inline methods from other classes which were not available at >>compile time. > >So can C and C++ compilers. ???? You can't inline stuff you don't have available unless you're psychic.
