void A()
{
}

void B()
{
   pragma(inline, true) A();
}

void C()
{
   B();
}

Reading that code, I would guess that within B(), the call to A() would 
get inlined. Reading the DIP, it appears that the pragma controls 
whether B() gets inlined.

When the pragma is used outside of the scope at the function declaration 
it would work more like "inline" or "__inline" in C++, correct?
