Thread: What does Borland mean by "Functions containing for are not expanded inline"?

Borland is giving me a warning for some reason. Not sure why??
Has anyone come across this warning before please?
"Functions containing for are not expanded inline"

Here is part of my code with one of the for loops it seems to be complaining about:

Code:

class Neuron
{
public: 
Neuron(unsigned int numI) 
{
neuronNumInputs = numI;
for(unsigned int i=0; i<neuronNumInputs; i++) 
{
vecWeights.push_back(randWeight()); 
}
}
double produceOutput(const vector<double>& inputs) 
{
assert(neuronNumInputs == inputs.size()); 
double activation = 0;
for(unsigned int i=0; i<inputs.size(); i++)
{
activation += vecWeights[i]*inputs[i];
}
double neuronOutput = 1/(1 + exp(-activation));
return neuronOutput;
}
private: // Encapsulate variables
unsigned int neuronNumInputs; 
vector<double> vecWeights; 
};

Thank you!

Since your are defining your constructor in the class body, it is implicitly marked as "inline". Apparently the compiler doesn't like functions with loops inlined.

Now, there are two things you should do:
1) INDENT!
2) You are better off with a good compiler such as Visual C++ or GCC.
