'function' : Too many block scope static objects with constructor/destructors in function

There is a limit of 31 on the number of static objects you can have in an externally visible inline function.

The following code generates C2603:

// C2603.cpp
struct C { C() {} };
extern inline void f1() {
   static C C1,C2,C3,C4,C5,C6,C7,C8,C9,C10,C11,C12,C14,C15,C16;
   static C C17,C18,C19,C20,C21,C22,C23,C24,C25,C26,C27,C28,C29,C30,C31,C32;
   static C C33;   // C2603 Comment this line out to avoid error
}
