Description

With file organisation like this:

  • components/MainScene.xml
  • components/MainScene.brs
  • components/utils/Utils.brs
  • source/mediator/MainMediator.brs

Considering:

  • MainScene.xml imports Utils.brs and MainMediator.brs,
  • and MainMediator.brs utilises some function from Utils.brs.

Then bsc will report:

MainMediator.brs - error BS1001: Cannot find function with name X (from Utils) when this file is included in scope 'source'

Granted, this looks like a bad pattern so it may not be fixed.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the report with the listed components/MainScene.xml, components/MainScene.brs, components/utils/Utils.brs, and source/mediator/MainMediator.brs files using bsc. Trace how the imports and source scope are resolved, then verify whether the described layout still produces BS1001 or whether the behavior should be documented as unsupported.
