RE: Inline Function Advantages

Beside the adventages which are mentioned there are some more advantages of Inline Functions over Macros
1> Macro call is resolve at the compile time and compiler replce Identifier with charecter sequence so it is tough to understand error
Ex
#define ASPECT_RATIO 1.653
error message may refer to 1.653, not ASPECT_RATIO.
2> Some time operators get incremented two times in case of macros
#define max(a,b) ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))
max(++a, b); // a is incremented twice
((++a)>(b) ? (++a) :(b))
