Import - Haxe - The Cross-platform Toolkit

Haxe is an open source toolkit based on a modern, high level, strictly typed programming language.

according to this:

Haxe allows using a wildcard symbol .* to allow import of all modules in a package, all types in a module, or all static fields in a type. It is important to understand that this kind of import only crosses a single level as we can see in the following example

assume we have a module under mypkg.MyModule.MyModule , the wildcard import mypkg.MyModule.* only import all static fields inside the module MyModule, not "all types in a module"

[NulllStack]

I think you could just use import mypkg.MyModule; to import all types in MyModule ?

Even through grammar is similar, It's very different from some common languages like javascript / python / go.

There's some tips (Haxe 4.3):

• Not Like Java. A.hx means module A, must be starts with uppercase. This rule and java-style helloword reminds me of Java. I thought it was like java, one Class one File. But IT'S NOT TRUE. In haxe, Module is one thing, and Class is another.

• Package is one more distinct thing. If you install lib from haxelib(e.g. haxelib install pkg ), you should import it like than: import pkg.custom_path.ModuleA.ClassB or import pkg.custom_path.ModuleA.

• import pkg.ModuleA as X is not allowed. Module alias is not allowed in Haxe.

• import pkg.ModuleA.ClassB as B is ok.

• import pkg.ModuleA.funcC as c is ok.

• When you import a module, like "import pkg.ModuleA", equivalent to import * from pkg.ModuleA in ts.

• I can't find a grammer equivalent to import * as ModuleA from pkg.ModuleA.

I'm 99% sure you can do Module alias, the documentation didn't state if it's allowed or not
