B4R Question Timer

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'Public variables can be accessed from all modules.
    Public Serial1 As Serial
    Public timer1 As Timer
End Sub

Private Sub AppStart
    Serial1.Initialize(115200)
    timer1.Initialize("timer1",1000)
    timer1.Enabled = True
    Log("AppStart")
End Sub

Sub timer1_Tick
    Log("timer")
End Sub

Error:

In B4R you need to write the full sub name:

 timer1.Initialize("timer1_tick",1000) 'case is not important

The reason is technical. The underlying platform is completely static so the compiler must connect the string and the sub during compilation.
