TS 3.4: Error when passing dynamically imported generic type as a function argument #30712

Open

Description

TypeScript Version: 3.4.0-dev.201xxxxx

Search Terms: TS2322, dynamic import, dynamic import never, dynamic import generic

Code

 .\node_modules\.bin\tsc --jsx react --lib es2017 --strict index.tsx
// ===== page.tsx ======
import * as React from 'react'

export interface PageProps {
    title: string
}

export class Page extends React.Component<PageProps> {
    render() {
        return <div>{this.props.title}</div>
    }
}

// ===== index.tsx =====
import * as React from 'react'
import{ PageProps, Page } from './page'

export function myFunction<TProps>(loader: () => Promise<React.ComponentType<TProps>>) {

}

// No error
myFunction(() => Promise.resolve(Page))

// No error
const loader: () => Promise<React.ComponentType<PageProps>> = () => import('./page').then(m => m.Page)

// Error
myFunction(() => import('./page').then(m => m.Page))

Expected behavior:

No compile error. This was the behavior in TS 3.3 and earlier.

Actual behavior:

There is an error after upgrading to TS 3.4:

index.tsx:14:18 - error TS2322: Type 'Promise<typeof Page | ComponentClass<never, any> | FunctionComponen
t<never>>' is not assignable to type 'Promise<ComponentType<PageProps>>'.
  Type 'typeof Page | ComponentClass<never, any> | FunctionComponent<never>' is not assignable to type 'C
omponentType<PageProps>'.
    Type 'ComponentClass<never, any>' is not assignable to type 'ComponentType<PageProps>'.
      Type 'ComponentClass<never, any>' is not assignable to type 'ComponentClass<PageProps, any>'.
        Type 'PageProps' is not assignable to type 'never'.

14 myFunction(() => import('./page').then(m => m.Page))
                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  index.tsx:4:44
    4 export function myFunction<TProps>(loader: () => Promise<React.ComponentType<TProps>>) {
                                                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The expected type comes from the return type of this signature.
