TypeScript was updated prior to v0.0.24.... reference

Can you try clearing your npm cache and recreate your project?

The package.json on master says 1.7.3

[jpdonaghy]

I see that the blueprint package.jsons have 1.8 but only after I update the dependency in the main package.json on my fork and then npm link does ng start using tsc 1.8. Seems odd to me.

I was able to replicate this as well. I generated a new project. Added a single string literal to the generated app ts and got compile errors.

Error: [DiffingTSCompiler]: Typescript found the following errors: app/blah.ts (22, 9): Type expected. app/blah.ts (22, 9): The left-hand side of an arithmetic operation must be of type 'any', 'number' or an enum type. app/blah.ts (22, 18): The right-hand side of an arithmetic operation must be of type 'any', 'number' or an enum type. app/blah.ts (22, 27): The right-hand side of an arithmetic operation must be of type 'any', 'number' or an enum type. app/blah.ts (22, 40): The right-hand side of an arithmetic operation must be of type 'any', 'number' or an enum type. app/blah.ts (23, 1): Declaration or statement expected. at DiffingTSCompiler.doFullBuild (/Users/chapplez/Desktop/temp/blah/node_modules/angular-cli/lib/broccoli/broccoli-typescript.js:202:29) at DiffingTSCompiler.rebuild (/Users/chapplez/Desktop/temp/blah/node_modules/angular-cli/lib/broccoli/broccoli-typescript.js:101:18) at DiffingPluginWrapper.rebuild (/Users/chapplez/Desktop/temp/blah/node_modules/angular-cli/lib/broccoli/diffing-broccoli-plugin.js:87:45) at /Users/chapplez/Desktop/temp/blah/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/broccoli/lib/api_compat.js:42:21 at lib$rsvp$$internal$$tryCatch (/Users/chapplez/Desktop/temp/blah/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/rsvp/dist/rsvp.js:1036:16) at lib$rsvp$$internal$$invokeCallback (/Users/chapplez/Desktop/temp/blah/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/rsvp/dist/rsvp.js:1048:17) at /Users/chapplez/Desktop/temp/blah/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/rsvp/dist/rsvp.js:331:11 at lib$rsvp$asap$$flush (/Users/chapplez/Desktop/temp/blah/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/angular-cli/node_modules/rsvp/dist/rsvp.js:1198:9) at doNTCallback0 (node.js:419:9) at process._tickCallback (node.js:348:13)

This is because we didn't have a release after updating to TS 1.8, so you need to npm link against the current master to get the changes. This will be fixed by the next release, in the meanwhile you can use this workaround.

Feel free to reopen if you think that this is still an issue.

[cironunes]

Oh, I just realized that current master didn't update to 1.8 yet. My mistake.

[jpdonaghy]

@cironunes Thanks for the confirmation. I'll run off my CLI fork until the main project upgrades.

[cironunes]

Would you like to create a PR updating to 1.8?
