How to define interface method with different arguments in AS3?

Question

I'm trying to define interface in which one method (initPage) needs to have different arguments in every implementation. How can I do this? Using ...args for me is not good, because I'm loosing strong type checking.

public interface IPage {
    function initPage(...args):void;
    function showPage():void;
    function hidePage():void;
    function removePage():void;
}

You know you can implements more than one Interface?

I think you should maintain your actual Interface, minus the "problematic" method, and create another Interfaces, each one with a different method

public interface IPage 
{      
    function showPage():void;
    function hidePage():void;
    function removePage():void;
}

public interface IPrettyPage
{
    function initPage(p:PrettyArg);
}

public interface IUglyPage
{
    function initPage(u:UglyArg);
}


// your implementation Class
package 
{
    public class Page extends Sprite implements IPage, IPrettyPage
    {
        // Implementation
    }
}

Anyway, here's an example with another good idea, BUT is a Java code: http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/Language-Basics/Implementmultipleinterfaces.htm

I didn't tested, but I'm almost sure this issue is different in AS3.
