[fpc-devel] Odd question?

[mm]

Hello,

Contrary to Delphi, FPC doesn't inline the "Odd()" functions. I agree
this is not very important for most programs but this is annoying for
'math' programs. A few months ago, I re-started to work on my NX library
and currently, just because FPC doesn't inline "Odd()", its code is
stuffed with expressions like "if (N and 1) <> 0 then" (it works but
this is less legible than "if Odd(N) then").

The inlined code shouldn't be much bigger than the calls to "Odd()". So,
why aren't they inlined? Is there a reason you did so?
