System: Linux skywise 2.4.20 #7 Thu May 15 19:53:29 CEST 2003 i686 unknown
Architecture: i686

>Description:
g++-3.3 -Winline generates warnings for functions it cannot inline
that it shouldn't even try to inline because they are neither declared as "inline", nor defined in the class body.
>How-To-Repeat:
Save the following as "main.cpp"
/* snip */
#include "foo.hpp"
int main(int,char)
{
  return foo();
}
/* snip */
Save the following as "foo.hpp"
/* snip */
int foo(void);
/* snip */
Save the following as "foo.cpp"
/* snip */
int foo(void)
{
  return 0;
}
/* snip */
Then compile with

$ g++-3.3 -O3 -Winline main.cpp new.cpp

Result is a useless warning that int foo(void) could not be inlined. (Correct, but supposed not to be inline-able).
>Fix:
        Avoid "-Winline"
