Is it possible to have a recursive inline function ?

Answer 1

Inline is just a request to the compiler to treat the call to a function like a macro and substitute it rather than treating it as a function and making a call. This request may or may not be considered by a compiler where in the second case it treats it as a normal function rather than inline. So even though you do try to make a recursive function inline the compiler will ignore it and consider it as a normal function and work in the normal fashion to execute it.
P.S Doing this is definitely not a good coding practice.

Good Luck~

Answer 3

I would say that compilers would probably never inline a recursive function.

Answer 4

Yaa Right

Answer 5

Although you can call an inline function from within itself, the compiler will not generate inline code since the compiler cannot determine the depth of recursion at compile time.

Answer 6

Yessssss it's possible
