A few years ago, in PR 3301, we made a big effort to remove Imath types as much as possible from the public APIs. Somehow, as part of that refactor, we ended up with just the half-varieties of fmath.h's convert_types() templates actually being implemented in fmath.cpp and only declared (by default) in fmath.h. I'm honestly not sure why I did that now, and the PR doesn't explain that particular point. But that sets up a potential link incompatibility if OIIO used a different release of Imath than the use is using when calling that utility function. So this PR makes it fully inline again, so the Imath version the downstream package uses just doesn't need to match what was found/used at the time that OIIO was build.

Can anybody think of reason why this would be harmful? |
