Not compiling in Haxe version 3.3.0-rc1

When compiling using -Dtelemetry yields this error

Whoops, this works with the github version, just not the haxelib version, I recommend pushing it out as 3.3.0-rc1 is the main advertised compiler now.

Ah, yes, there was a set of changes 25 days ago (including some in hxcpp: https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/hxcpp/pull/467) -- thanks for the note, filing new issue for updating haxelib.

When I use hxcpp from git, I have following error:

I have checked and missing functions are defined in hxcpp Telmetry.cpp file but it is not linked. Is there any way to fix this?

[jcward]

Hmm, @hughsando recently refactored the debug / telemetry / profiler stuff in hxcpp git, maybe he can help. Here's a compiler output from linux. It looks like it has the telemetry defines and the Telemetry.cpp source is being compiled, so why is link failing?

@jcward I am very new to haxe but maybe it is because there are two Telemetry obj files? As far as I know, one comes from hxcpp and one from openfl.
