It seems as though DMC++ generates code for inline functions if they're

Yes. But if they are unused, the linker will throw them away.

 Yes. But if they are unused, the linker will throw them away.


That happens at the time the .lib is linked to the .exe/.dll, rather than at the
time the .lib is formed??

If the function is in a 'COMDAT' record, the linker will not insert it in
the exe file if it is not referenced.
