The compiler may still emit code for a function defined or declared with ``static inline`` or ``static __inline__``. Therefore, if you want to put an inline function definition into a header file, consider ``extern inline`` instead (see the compiler documentation). references: [] requirement-type: functional text: | The ${../if/inline-routine:/name} macro shall evaluate to the keywords ``static inline`` or ``static __inline__`` which ever variant is available to the used compiler. type: requirement
