It has to be a macro. Here, the loop evaluates "condition" at every pass. If this were an inline function, "condition" would be evaluated once when the function were called, and never again. -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
