Inline call is recursive

[vapid garden]

How do I force it to call the function?

[uneven lotus]

what does this mean 😄
the inline call is not recursive

again, depends exactly what you mean

please be more specific

[wraith crown]

inline fn foo() void {
    foo();
}

this errors with error: inline call is recursive

the answer is you dont because that doesnt make much sense

[uneven lotus]

oh yes of course

[wraith crown]

it would create an infinitely big binary

[vapid garden]

I see

I first defined said function as inline and called it in majn

it works just fine, but it refuses to work when I called it from another function

[uneven lotus]

@wraith crown would this be valid:

pub fn main() !void {
    @call(.always_inline, foo, .{});
}

fn foo() void {
    foo();
}```
?

[wraith crown]

oh thats interesting

i guess it should

[uneven lotus]

oh it causes a segsegv

[wraith crown]

lol

[wraith crown]

at runtime?

[uneven lotus]

yes

[wraith crown]

yeah that makes sense, only the top level call is inline then it just recurses infinitely which segfaults
