Maybe changing p5 to say "on a function parameter or block scope declaration" is better? Is this editorial to start with? |
|
Function parameters have no linkage, so it being an inline variable would have no effect whatsoever. I feel that the intent here is pretty clear. As for the wording, I made it congruent to how it is specified for the storage class specifiers. If it is decided that this is not editorial, I can submit a DR. |

Editorial meeting: Please submit a core issue. Other uses of "block scope" should probably also extend to "function parameter scope". |

It is nonsensical for function parameters to be declared
inline, as the wording in [dcl.inline] would be meaningless for function parameter. A function parameter does is not declared in block scope, so http://eel.is/c++draft/dcl.inline#5 doesn't apply.
