;;; Commentary:

;; This package provides the macro `define-inline' which lets you define
;; functions by defining their (exhaustive) compiler macro.
;;
;; The idea is that instead of doing like defsubst and cl-defsubst (i.e. from
;; the function's definition, guess the best way to inline the function),
;; we go the other way around: the programmer provides the code that does the
;; inlining (as a compiler-macro) and from that we derive the definition of the
;; function itself.  The idea originated in an attempt to clean up `cl-typep',
;; whose function definition amounted to (eval (cl--make-type-test EXP TYPE)).
;;
;; The simplest use is for plain and simple inlinable functions.  Rather than:
;;
;;     (defmacro myaccessor (obj)
;;       (macroexp-let2 macroexp-copyable-p obj obj
;;         `(if (foop ,obj) (aref (cdr ,obj) 3) (aref ,obj 2))))
;; Or
;;     (defsubst myaccessor (obj)
;;       (if (foop obj) (aref (cdr obj) 3) (aref obj 2)))
;; Or
;;     (cl-defsubst myaccessor (obj)
;;       (if (foop obj) (aref (cdr obj) 3) (aref obj 2)))
;;
;; You'd do
;;
;;     (define-inline myaccessor (obj)
;;       (inline-letevals (obj)
;;         (inline-quote (if (foop ,obj) (aref (cdr ,obj) 3) (aref ,obj 2)))))
;;
;; Other than verbosity, you get the best of all 3 above without their
;; respective downsides:
;; - defmacro: can't be passed to `mapcar' since it's not a function.
;; - defsubst: not as efficient, and doesn't work as a `gv' place.
;; - cl-defsubst: only works by accident, since it has latent bugs in its
;;   handling of variables and scopes which could bite you at any time.
;;   (e.g. try (cl-defsubst my-test1 (x) (let ((y 5)) (+ x y)))
;;         and then M-: (macroexpand-all '(my-test1 y)) RET)
;; There is still one downside shared with the defmacro and cl-defsubst
;; approach: when the function is inlined, the scoping rules (dynamic or
;; lexical) will be inherited from the the call site.

;; Of course, since define-inline defines a compiler macro, you can also do
;; call-site optimizations, just like you can with `defmacro', but not with
;; defsubst nor cl-defsubst.
