Bug? Unused Subs warning

[LucaMs]

This isn't a real bug; Furthermore, it doesn't interest me much and I'll explain why.

I opened a project posted by a B4X member. In it, some Subs have been written without specifying their "visibility" (Private or Public). I never do it, so what I'm about to write is of little interest to me.

A Sub declared like this, without Private or Public, is automatically considered Public. The IDE does NOT list public Subs as "unused", but "implied public" ones yes.

Was I clear enough? I do not think so

Yes you were clear

Private Sub ....         'no unused message

Public Sub ...          ' no unused message

Sub ...                    ' gets unused message

Sub ... 'ignore        ' no unused message

Yes you were clear

Private Sub ....         'no unused message

Public Sub ...          ' no unused message

Sub ...                    ' gets unused message

Sub ... 'ignore        ' no unused message

Note: the project I just downloaded and in which I noticed this "problem"... is actually one of your projects

Why am I not surprised Haha.

I tend to use (sometmes) Private and Public subs in class modules but not in the main class.

I didn't mean to criticize, I just wanted to point out the coincidence, you replying here and me noticing this thing in one of your projects

This is indeed not a bug. It is by design.
