This handy test is from Jack Kelly on the cmake email list.
Here is a minimal working example. It tests the inline keyword, then inline and then __inline. When it finds one that works, it will ADD_DEFINITIONS(-Dinline=${KEYWORD}) and if none work, it will ADD_DEFINITIONS(-Dinline=).
# Inspired from /usr/share/autoconf/autoconf/c.m4
FOREACH(KEYWORD "inline" "__inline__" "__inline")
IF(NOT DEFINED C_INLINE)
TRY_COMPILE(C_HAS_${KEYWORD} "${GPUIT_BINARY_DIR}"
"${GPUIT_SOURCE_DIR}/test_inline.c"
COMPILE_DEFINITIONS "-Dinline=${KEYWORD}")
IF(C_HAS_${KEYWORD})
SET(C_INLINE TRUE)
ADD_DEFINITIONS("-Dinline=${KEYWORD}")
ENDIF(C_HAS_${KEYWORD})
ENDIF(NOT DEFINED C_INLINE)
ENDFOREACH(KEYWORD)
IF(NOT DEFINED C_INLINE)
ADD_DEFINITIONS("-Dinline=")
ENDIF(NOT DEFINED C_INLINE)You also need this file in your source directory.
