How to split module code into multiple sources ?

Assuming you have a module M1 with 2 classes in/under it C1, C2:

M1.mc:
module M1 {
    class C1 {
        ... // class code here
    } // end C1


    class C2 {
        ... // class code here
    } // end C2
}

Is there a way to take the C1 and C2 code out of 'M1.mc' source-file and place it in e.g. 'C1.mc' and 'C2.mc' source-files *while still have these classes belong-to/live-under module M1 ? and if so - what would the syntax be ?

FYI

Unless I am mistaken, the following seems to work:
file C1.mc: module M1 { class C1 { ... // class code here } // end C1 } file C2.mc: module M1 { class C2 { ... // class…

The module needs to be in a single file.

I believe there is a way still, since e.g. hierarchically the whole SDK is under the single module 'Toybox', and there is no way/I find it hard to believe the whole SDK is in a single file

file C1.mc:
module M1 {
    class C1 {
        ... // class code here
    } // end C1
}


file C2.mc:
module M1 {
    class C2 {
        ... // class code here
    } // end C2
}


optionally (i.e. not a must) in addition you could also have
file M1.mc:
module M1 {
    // some module-level code here
}

Does it compile and run this way? If so, old dogs can learn new tricks!

Yes, compiles and runs, and further - (as expected) given the example above, if you try to e.g. 'new C2()' from outside the M1 module you get 'Symbol Not Found Error' when you run the code, and once you change it to 'new M1.C2()' it runs fine/no issues
