Yes, I know. As I have said, C++ requires that the definition
(i.e., the body) of an inline function must be in scope when it
is called. But you may still have a declaration separate from a
definition, which (apparently) Richard Riehle assumed was not
the case. This means that you can write your classes without
defining the inline methods, and define them separately.

This is legal:
struct a { int f(); };
inline int a::f() { return 0; }
main() { a an_a; an_a.f(); }
