Android Question src\b4a\example\calcs.java:329: error: unreachable statement

I have an application, written in C, working on a microprocessor with an LCD display. I am trying to convert it, using B4A, to run on a phone so that it can have a nice graphical display.

The particular problem that stumps me at present is that my square root routine, written to avoid using floating point arithmetic, fails to compile with this message:

If (work <= 1) Then Return retVal
src\b4a\example\calcs.java:329: error: unreachable statement

This is the code

Sub sqrti(inVal As Long) As Int
Private retVal = 1, work As Long
Do While (True)
retVal = (retVal + inVal / retVal) / 2
work = Abs((retVal * retVal) - inVal)
If (work <= 1) Then Return retVal
Loop
End Sub

Presumably the java compiler thinks that work can never be <=1. But a desk check shows it always converges to <=1. And the equivalent routine in C works fine.

I'd be grateful for any clues how to proceed. Where can I find the generated java code?
