Typedoc: Cannot read property 'files' of undefined.

[ShadowManu]

I have a medium sized project failing to run typedoc in latest version (0.5.7)

Using TypeScript 2.1.6 from /home/shadowmanu/Desktop/stable/zoi-client/node_modules/typedoc/node_modules/typescript/lib
/home/shadowmanu/Desktop/stable/zoi-client/node_modules/typedoc/dist/lib/converter/plugins/SourcePlugin.js:118
            directory.files.push(file);
                     ^

TypeError: Cannot read property 'files' of undefined

A little debugging, seems to be a name conflict. I have a folder called files (with a file inside callled files.control.ts), files conflicting with SourceDirectory#files.

A miracle you just posted this... I had the exact same problem just now!

I have the same issue, did anyone find a workaround, beside the option to rename the folder ?

[ShadowManu]

@khorvat the best workaround should be a PR on it.
