TypeScript 2.0 Support

If I try to use typedoc with nigthly build or typescript@next, it throw this:

Error: Unknown optionstrictNullChecks.

That would be because it doesn't understand options in the nightly. If someone wants to set up infrastructure for nightly builds, we can mirror TypeScript.

Ok. I also found out that there are other new TS 2 features that isn't supported. And I think there is an bug here because my IO socket got closed again now when I tried to run the typedoc + typescript@next combo

Is there any plan on when the new TS 2 features will be supported?

Why not wait until it's released. Currently its only a beta.

[breslavsky]

Real need supporting of TS2. My be you can release beta with supporting?

As of June 30, Angular 2 is at RC4 and is already being used in production. Since Angular 2 depends on TypeScript 2.0, companies want to be able to generate source code documentation for their production software. A prerelease version of TypeDoc would be greatly appreciated.

If you want to have tsdoc work with typescript@2.0.0, try the following

"typedoc": "https://github.com/zakhenry/typedoc/releases/download/v0.4.6/typedoc-0.4.6.tgz",

Note that this is only a hack to make it output properly, it doesn't support any of the new features. I actually have to flag ignoreCompilerErrors: true, for it to run, but the output is correct despite the error output.

Angular 2 depends on TypeScript 2.0??? Where does this come from? I'm working with TypeScript 1.8 and Angular 2 and it works finde and I can't find any reference to TypeScript 2.0
I think there is a lot of migration and bugfixing needed before TypeScript 2.0 can be use in production.

@DaSchTour yea it doesn't yet - angular core is 1.9 currently

@DaSchTour. Angular, itself, has been on the 1.9 nightly since April:
angular/angular@3412aba#diff-b9cfc7f2cdf78a7f4b91a753d10865a2R117

angular-cli master branch moved to 2.0 on July 26:
angular/angular-cli@a163186#diff-3a478e3f045d99a9448f81518886a1a1R50

One of the two major seed projects moved past 1.8 on
July 13
PatrickJS/PatrickJS-starter@8a44e2d#diff-b9cfc7f2cdf78a7f4b91a753d10865a2R128

The other is still at 1.8
https://github.com/mgechev/angular2-seed/blob/9a8bf12eef0f28d310ecc0e568f6c5235422749e/package.json#L107

So, yeah, it's time to move.
