Global @types functions not being recognized

[nick-pww]

Just upgrade to 2.5.3 from 2.1.X and am having issues where functions like "require('...')" from node and "describe('...')" from Jasmine are being flagged with 'Cannot find name'. These worked fine in the older versions.

I've tried removing the NetBeans cache as well as updating those particular dependencies.

It seems like if I add import statements for these specifically it stops complaining:

import 'jasmine';
import 'node';

But then I when I actually compile (using webpack) it complains about not finding the node module. With out these changes everything compiles fine.

I have the same issue. Possible workaround is to put /// into root custom.d.ts - at least, it works in my case.

I had the same problem with version 2.5.3.0
I managed to fix it by adding "typeRoots" : ["./node_modules/@types"] to compilerOptions in tsconfig.json and restarting netbeans.

Hope this helps
