I think it is a crude(ish) way to avoid event Subs showing as unused because they are not called from within the app code but from the app's message loop.

So I have to assume that you participate in the development of Anywhere Software tools, right?

It could be, given that...

P.S. So B4X is about to turn 15!

I helped Erel in the initial development of B4A as I was a significant contributor to its predecessor Basi4ppc. I was the first (as far as I know) to run the initial versions of B4A to identify bugs and feedback to Erel. I wrote many of the initial libraries, some of which, like Reflection and ByteConverter are now part of the B4A standard libraries and some, like Threading, while important initially are less so now that Erel has written asynchronicity into other libraries that most benefit from it.
From one of our interchanges in 2010 during the development of B4A prior to release.

I am about to clarify what I meant and then "close" the thread, as I have been privately asked questions.
The purpose of the warning about unused subs is to allow you to delete them in case you really don't need them anymore.
However, if the name of one of my routines that I will not actually use anymore (old version of my source) contains an underscore, the warning will not happen and my source will be less "clean".

Yes, @AnandGupta , even if I sometimes read lightly, too fast, and maybe I will lose my sight and the last two neurons, for the moment I think I understand the answer.
But, again... if I were to create/have (old module) a Sub whose name contained an underscore and my project didn't use it, it would be useful for me to have the IDE warn me; otherwise I am forced to avoid underscores in Subs that are not events.
My answers are probably convoluted

Two of the main problems of humanity:
1 - everyone's mother tongue should be Italian;
2 - the only existing programming language should be B4X.

Is that a bad thing? Underscores are kind of ugly outside of C where everything is lowercased.

I never use underscores in the names of my routines; I did it today and it is precisely for this reason that I realized this only today (in a simple test project).
