Hi guys,

I have this code that raised an error
B4X:
Sub Test(RowId)
    CallSubDelayed2(CallFrom, SubToCall,RowId)
    Activity.Finish   
End Sub

Change the code to this
B4X:
Sub Test(RowId)
    CallSubDelayed2(CallFrom, "MySub",RowId)
    Activity.Finish  
End Sub

Fix the error. It is a bug or a normal behavior?

It seems to be a normal behavior that the error if not the issue here, so no need to post it, just simple question should it raised an error or not.

I have tried it, it didn't work.

The error is "Sub mysub doesn't found."

mysub in the log is in lower capital, actual Sub name is MySub.

try
B4X:
Sub Test(RowId)
    CallSubDelayed2(CallFrom, "mysub",RowId)
    Activity.Finish
End Sub

This will work, but this
B4X:
Sub Test(RowId)
    Private SubToCall as String
    SubToCall = "mysub"
    CallSubDelayed2(CallFrom, SubToCall ,RowId)
    Activity.Finish
End Sub
Doesn't works
java.lang.Exception: Sub mysub was not found.

Here are the code to call a sub in other activity
B4X:
Sub bbBatch_Clicked
    Private m As Map
    m.Initialize
    m.Put("CallFrom",Me)
    m.Put("SubToCall","MySub")
    CallSubDelayed2(ModSearchFrmN, "ShowData",m)
End Sub

And here are the codes from module ModSearchFrmN
B4X:
Sub Globals
  Private CallFrom As Object
   Private SubToCall As String
End Sub

Sub ShowData(Params As Map)
   CallFrom    = Params.Get("CallFrom")
   SubToCall    = Params.Get("SubToCall")
End Sub

Sub Test(RowId As Int)
    CallSubDelayed2(CallFrom, SubToCall,RowId) 'this is the error line
    Activity.Finish 
End Sub

Your second code should work.
Check if you have a module named CallFrom (CallFrom? Module to call!) and that this module has a routine named mysub.
There is no module named CallFrom

Hace you tried with smart string literal. ---> $""${SubtoCall}""$?

CallSubDelayed2(CallFrom, $""${SubToCall}""$,RowId) -> didn't work either.

java.lang.Exception: Sub "mysub" was not found.

With "module" I meant: Activity module or Code module or Service module.

See the CallSubDelayed2 parameters; the first one must be the "module" which contains the routine to call.
There is no activity / service module with that name, CallFrom.
CallFrom is just an Object variable.

My 50cts : the obfuscation ? Adding an underscore in the sub's name ?
You were right

Change the codes into like this solved the problem
B4X:
Sub bbBatch_Clicked
    Private m As Map
    m.Initialize
    m.Put("CallFrom",Me)
    m.Put("SubToCall","My_Sub") 'change Sub Name from MySub to My_Sub
    CallSubDelayed2(ModSearchFrmN, "ShowData",m)
End Sub
