Bug? B4A v5.02 Global Variables (Not Process Globals) accessible from other Activities/Modules

[fixit30]

Boy, I've wasted the whole morning chasing my tail debugging my app. Eventually I decided to load it in v4.30 and found it wouldn't compile as I was mistakenly referencing an Activity Global rather than a Process Global.

B4A v5.02 allows you to reference Activity Global variables from other Activities / Code Modules/ Service Modules and compiles. I guess this should not be the case?

Attached is a sample project.

Can confirm.
Private would hide them, but pure Dim leaves them exposed.

Private would hide them

Thankyou for the workaround!
