An inline function replaces the call to the function by the body of the function, thus reducing the overhead of saving the context in stack. This is good for functions which are small in size and called occasionally. A recursive function calls an instance of itself and thus can be a deeply nested. Different compilers handle this differently. Some will inline it up to a certain depth and then call a non-inlined instance for further recursion; others will not inline the function at all and generate a normal function call.

The asp .net client side code is usually call inline code. From most browsers it can be view by choosing 'View source' from the page menu.

The idea behind inline functions is to insert the code of a called function at the point where the function is called. If done carefully, this can improve the application's performance in exchange for increased compile time and possibly (but not always) an increase in the size of the generated binary executables.

My ultimate goal is to help this company reach its mission, which is to be the dominant player in the market. I can do this by staying focus, making sure that everything that I do is inline with company goals and visions.

inline functions are the functions with the keyword inline written prior to their declaration in a class.it has the advantage that if a function is made inline than the code of the called function is placed at the site where it is called.so it obviates the need of jumping to different addresses acc to how many times it is being called.it is useful in small functions but for bigger functions normal functions work better.

Advantage of having a Macros and Inline functions are that they are efficient than calling a normal function. The times spend in calling the function is saved in case of macros and inline functions as these are included directly into the code.

An abstract class is a protocol class if:

• it neither contains nor inherits from classes that contain member data, non-virtual functions, or private (or protected) members of any kind.
• it has a non-inline virtual destructor defined with an empty implementation,
• all member functions other than the destructor including  inherited functions, are declared pure virtual functions and left undefined.
