According to the C++ reference, if you want to use inline class
implementation, the desired functions must be implemented in class
definition. Your class schould look this way:

class TInline {
 public:
  TInline() { /* empty */ };
 ~TInline() { /* empty */ };
 };

it works (I've checked). And of course remember about #ifdef....#endif
enclosing your header file. Happy coding!
