zh-hans:代码 zh-hans:宏 在计算机科学中，内联函数（有时称作在线函数或编译时期展开函数）是一种编程语言结构，用来建议编译器对一些特殊函数进行内联扩展（有时称作在线扩展）；也就是说建议编译器将指定的函数体插入并取代每一处调用该函数的地方（上下文），从而节省了每次调用函数带来的额外时间开支。但在选择使用内联函数时，必须在进程占用空间和进程运行效率之间进行权衡，因为过多的比较复杂的函数进行内联扩展将带来很大的存储资源开支。另外还需要非常注意的是对递归函数的内联扩展可能带来部分编译器的无穷编译。

In the C and C++ programming languages, an inline function is one qualified with the keyword inline; this serves two purposes. Firstly, it serves as a compiler directive that suggests (but does not require) that the compiler substitute the body of the function inline by performing inline expansion, i.e. by inserting the function code at the address of each function call, thereby saving the overhead of a function call. In this respect it is analogous to the register storage class specifier, which similarly provides an optimization hint. The second purpose of inline is to change linkage behavior; the details of this are complicated. This is necessary due to the C/C++ separate compilation + linkage model, specifically because the definition (body) of the function must be duplicated in all translation units where it is used, to allow inlining during compiling, which, if the function has external linkage, causes a collision during linking (it violates uniqueness of external symbols; in C++, the One Definition Rule). C and C++ (and dialects such as GNU C and Visual C++) resolve this in different ways.
