Typescript: new object by constructor

[ghost]

I get following error:

TS2351 Cannot use 'new' with an expression whose type lacks a call or construct signature.



class A {
constructor() { ... }
refresh() { return new this.constructor; }
}


new this.constructor works in pure JS.

Thanks:)

The type of constructor is just Function, unfortunately. You can write this instead:

class A { constructor() {  } refresh() { return new (<typeof A>this.constructor); } }
