the plugin warns you when it cannot inlineand so would kotlinc, i assume if it does not error .. that it inlines

[Sam]

interesting, have you ever run into a case when compiler couldn't?

[Nikky]

well usually the plugin will show me what errors before i try to compile.. i do not remember what did not work though, take it with a grain of salt

[Sam]

ah i see

When you use it a as a function reference for example.

[Sam]

Just tried an inline member reference and the code was indeed inlined

executeFunction( this::sampleFun )

   private fun executeFunction( block : () -> Unit ) {
        block()
    }

    private inline fun sampleFun() {
        println( "sampleFun finished" )
    }

[Sam]

Did you mean something else by function reference?

[karelpeeters]

I was mixing this up with function parameters that aren't inlined because you pass them to other contexts.

[Sam]

Ah got it
