project failed to run when Visual Studio 2015 publish project to bin\Release\PublishedOutput

[nklt]

All sample applications as well as SPA template failed to compile and run, once Visual Studio builds and publish the application to bin\Release\PublishedOutput location within the project space.

This cause the Visual Studio .net core compile, and as well as dotnet tools, to give an erroneous error on typescript file.

Duplicate identifier 'export='.

This error appeared in all typescript source file, such the require.d.ts and tsd.d.ts in Angular2SPA template.

Once the PublishedOutput is removed, the error disappear.

Thanks for reporting this.

TypeScript doesn't like it if it can see duplicate copies of definitions. You can solve this problem by adding bin to the list of excluded directories in tsconfig.json.

I've just applied this fix to the source, i.e.: 09e1cd3

Adding excluded bin directory fixed the first error, but introduced the next error in Typescript.

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error TS2664 Invalid module name in augmentation, module '../../Observable' cannot be found. TypeScript Virtual Projects C:\workspace6\Angular2Spa\node_modules\rxjs\add\observable\combineLatest.d.ts 2 Active

This error is seen on every typescript file in the project.

It appear the TSC cannot comletely ignore the bin folder for some reason.
