Description
TypeScript Version: 2.3.2
Code
function fn(): void {}
export type MyType = number;when compiled with a default tsconfig.json emits
"use strict";
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
function fn() {
}Expected behavior:
It should not emit
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });if exports is not emitted in the compiled module.
Actual behavior:
Object.defineProperty(...) is emitted even if exports is not defined for the compiled module. When this code is loaded in a browser, it will throw an exception: Uncaught ReferenceError: exports is not defined.
If the MyType type declaration in the above code is not exported, then Object.defineProperty(...) is not emitted.
