requirejs - Typescript AMD Module not returning anything -

i exporting simple function inside of "log.ts" file:

export function message(s : string) {     console.log(s); } 

this imported file ("mycontroller.ts") in same directory:

import log = module("./log"); class mycontroller {      : string = "aaa";      constructor () {         log.message("hello world");     } } 

when compiled, following js:

define(["require", "exports", "./log"], function(require, exports, __log__) {     var log = __log__;      var mycontroller = (function () {         function mycontroller() {             this.a = "aaa";             log.message("hello world");         }         return mycontroller;     })();     }) //@ sourcemappingurl=mycontroller.js.map 

this define function should return mycontroller. because not, callback inside snippet not controller parameter:

   require(["mycontroller"], function (controller) {                     theroute.controller = controller;                     defer.resolve();                     $rootscope.$apply();                 }); 

i can fix manually adding return inside of call define, not workaround because js being outputted ts compiler.

am doing wrong or bug in typescript?

you should write:

import log = module("./log"); export class mycontroller { // <--- 'export'     : string = "aaa";     constructor () {         log.message("hello world");     } } 

and:

   require(["mycontroller"], function (controller) {      theroute.controller = new controller.mycontroller(); // <--      defer.resolve();      $rootscope.$apply();    }); 

starting in 0.9.x you'll able write export = mycontroller; @ bottom of .ts file make class top-level exported object.
