Gerd, references is enough for me, to avoid C++. In the "old days", when I read
code with a function call, like foo(a), I was sure, that a will be the same
after the function call, than before. With C++, I cannot be sure anymore. If I
want to make a changable by a function call, I use &a in C. All pretty much self
documenting. Not anymore in C++.

It may even be a performance issue. I read your suggestion about the small
inline functions vs. macros. I basically agree. But when using reference
paramaters (your example did), things might be very different. This might make
it very difficult or even impossible to make a good optimization for the
compiler.

Function inlining is part of the ISO C Standard of 1999. Not all compilers
support it.

Dieter
