# Error code E0534

The `inline` attribute was malformed.

Erroneous code example:

    #[inline()] // error: expected one argument
    pub fn something() {}

    fn main() {}

The parenthesized `inline` attribute requires the parameter to be specified:

    #![allow(unused)]
    fn main() {
    #[inline(always)]
    fn something() {}
    }

or:

    #![allow(unused)]
    fn main() {
    #[inline(never)]
    fn something() {}
    }

Alternatively, a paren-less version of the attribute may be used to hint the compiler about inlining opportunity:

    #![allow(unused)]
    fn main() {
    #[inline]
    fn something() {}
    }
