Equivalent or rest parameter ? Not able to use macro expr. Getting errors

I am referencing this page:

to get an equivalent of rest parameter in AS3.0 .

Here is my code:

package myapp;
 
 import flash.display.*;
 import openfl.events.MouseEvent;
 import openfl.utils.Object ; 
 import openfl.display.Stage ;
 import openfl.events.Event ;
 import haxe.macro.Expr;
  
//about: testing rest arguments
//process: click on the stage to run the variable function 
class Main extends Sprite 
{
	var stage_St:Stage ;
 	public var my_Obj:Object;
 
public function new() 
{
 	super();
	 
	
	addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE , ats);
	
	
	
}

function ats(e):Void 
{
	
	stage_St = this.stage ; 
	stage_St.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(e)
	{
		    myMacro("foo", a, b, c);
 	}
	);

}
 

   macro   function myMacro(e1:Expr, extra:Array<Expr>) {
    for (e in extra) {
      trace(e);
    }
    return macro null;
  }
 

     
}

Here are the errors :

oh this is the old macro pollution issue :frowning:

importing class A imports class B which imports class C which imports js which is disallowed in a macro

Try wrapping your code in #if macro or #unless macro or put the macro into another class
