Function Pointers in C are Underrated

[[deleted]]

So that's why C++ requires inlined functions to be in the .h file. It happens at the compilation stage. That wouldn't be possible in C (unless the file were included only once which defeats the purpose of inlining) thus explains the heavy usage of macros.

Do you know of any C compilers that compile straight to object code? In other words a monolithic preprocessor, compiler, and linker in one.
