The C++ reference manual previously stated: "A name of file scope
that is explicitly declared *inline* is local to the translation unit."
Elsewhere it mentions *static* as local to the translation unit and "such
names are said to have internal linkage." Are explicitly declared
*inline* functions no longer considered local to the translation unit in
whatever equivalent wording now exists?
More to the point, is there any way to generate something
equivalent to GCC's "extern inline" available as a feature of the C
Compiler when using G++?
Thanks, David

In C++, declaring a function as inline does not affect its linkage, so
a non-member inline function is extern unless explicitly declared as
static.
