inline functions are the functions with the keyword inline written prior to their declaration in a class.it has the advantage that if a function is made inline than the code of the called function is placed at the site where it is called.so it obviates the need of jumping to different addresses acc to how many times it is being called.it is useful in small functions but for bigger functions normal functions work better.

By adding key word inline before the function name in the declaration, allows the function to be defined in the same file, in most case the header or the .h file without doing so in .cpp file.

Eg:-

inline LONG GetSeedValue(CEndUserRec* record)
{
    return record->ENDUSERSID;
}
