Definitelytyped: [@types/sinon] error TS1005: ';' expected.

[Waog]

Hello :)

When using "@types/sinon": "^5.0.1" with tsc 2.6.1 I get the following error when compiling:

node_modules/@types/sinon/index.d.ts(489,36): error TS1005: ';' expected.

it refers to this code line:
type SinonStubbedMember<T> = T extends Function ? SinonStub : T;

Downgrading to sinon 4.x.x helped for the moment.

Try updating your installed TypeScript version to at least 2.8.

@andy-ms having the same problem here. Forgive me if I am ignorant, but updating my typescript version broke a lot of my other dependencies. How would I go about solving that to test if this works?

[andy-ms]

What dependencies? All @types packages should be tested to work with the latest TypeScript.

I had this same issue and upgrading typescript to 3.0.1 fixed the error. Hope this helps.

I'm unable to publish a package to npm because of issues in this package:

user$ npm publish

> rm -rf lib && tsc

Is there a way to resolve these? @andy-ms

[andy-ms]

@ToJen the latest version of @types/sinon needs [email protected] or higher; you could install that or install @types/[email protected] instead.

Was just about to update that it worked @andy-ms thanks
