Case in Point
Using
falcor@^2.0.6
with Angular 6 with Typescript 2.9.2 when generating source maps fails with this message from Typescript transpilation:Error: Debug Failure. False expression.
Issues fixed
Because of the
a = b = c
structure used below (inGetResponse.js
andSetResponse.js
):var GetResponse = module.exports = function GetResponse(model, paths ...
This triggers the following github issue: microsoft/TypeScript#24963.
As we are using Angular 6, it is undesirable to change Typescript versions, so i'm fixing the problem at the source. There are other areas where this pattern exists in the falcor codebase, but this is the minimal change to solve our immediate issue. Happy to update the other files if it's a requirement.
I have tested our Angular project with this branch and it works successfully.
