Bug? Error message only in B4i: "block is not a valid identifier"

[Alessandro71]

this simple (sample) sub causes an error only in B4i
all is fine in B4A and B4J

Private Sub test(block As Int) As Int
    Return block + 1
End Sub

renaming "block" to "bblock" removes the message

This is not a bug. The compiler looks for this and throws an error as this is a reserved keyword in OBJC and it will break the OBJC compiler.

shouldn't this type of keyword check be the same across all B4X products, so the resultant code will be portable?
i discovered this while compiling a running B4A app on B4i

Valid point but I won't break existing B4A / B4J code because it is problematic in B4i. I might add a warning for this at some point.
