When I am writing a declaration file, I found it really frustrating repeating the inherited method that returns the instance itself for a correct return type.
E.g. for animation library GSAP, many classes are inherited from class Animation
, I have to repeat almost every method to update return type Animation
to the current class.
class Animation {
chain(): Animation;
}
class TweenLite extends Animation {
ownProperty: any;
chain(): TweenLite;
}
It would be great if we may use some type like self
to make this easier, like this:
class Animation {
chain(): self;
}
class TweenLite extends Animation {
ownProperty: any;
}
