Expose new compiler flags in the .targets file

[mhegazy]

We have added a set of new flags over the course of this release, we need to add MSBuild properties for them in VS 2013 and VS 2015 in .target files as well as in the project properties.

VS 2013

• --rootDir
• --noEmitHelpers
• --inlineSourceMap
• --inlineSources
• --newLine
• --separateCompilation
• --emitDecoratorMetadata

VS 2015

• --rootDir
• --noEmitHelpers
• --inlineSourceMap
• --inlineSources
• --newLine
• --separateCompilation
• --emitDecoratorMetadata

Note: separateCompilation flag name could change based on the design meeting discussion for #2499

@paulvanbrenk, i do not know if any of these need to be in the UI as well.

[mhegazy]

Updates to the new module targets tracked by #3033

[danquirk]

Include emitDecoratorMetadata too (see #3061)?

[mhegazy]

updated to include emitDecoratorMetaData.

is there a way to know when this becomes available in the beta install for vs 2013? i'm working on some aurelia samples for the typescript samples repo 👍

[mhegazy]

it is going to be in the next public VS release. for now you can set these in TypeScriptAdditionalFlags:

<TypeScriptAdditionalFlags> $(TypeScriptAdditionalFlags) --emitDecoratorMetaData </TypeScriptAdditionalFlags>

@mhegazy oh that is soooooo cool !!!

@mhegazy it works as you say, but there is a very small typo in the compiler flag:

this: emitDecoratorMetaData should be this: emitDecoratorMetadata

so the entire tag looks like this:

  <PropertyGroup Condition="'$(Configuration)' == 'Debug'">
    <TypeScriptRemoveComments>false</TypeScriptRemoveComments>
    <TypeScriptSourceMap>true</TypeScriptSourceMap>
    <TypeScriptModuleKind>amd</TypeScriptModuleKind>
    <TypeScriptAdditionalFlags> $(TypeScriptAdditionalFlags) --emitDecoratorMetadata </TypeScriptAdditionalFlags>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <PropertyGroup Condition="'$(Configuration)' == 'Release'">
    <TypeScriptRemoveComments>true</TypeScriptRemoveComments>
    <TypeScriptSourceMap>false</TypeScriptSourceMap>
    <TypeScriptAdditionalFlags> $(TypeScriptAdditionalFlags) --emitDecoratorMetadata </TypeScriptAdditionalFlags>
  </PropertyGroup>
