Incorrect declarations for clipboard events

[mindplay-dk]

The DOM declaration files declare clipboard events as DragEvent - for example here:

addEventListener(type: "paste", listener: (ev: DragEvent) => any, useCapture?: boolean): void;

I'm pretty sure these should have been declared with listener as ClipboardEvent - it's defined, but doesn't appear to be used in the actual event overloads?

This blocks me from accessing e.g. event.clipboardData...

PRs welcomed. more information about contributing lib fixes available in https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#contributing-libdts-fixes

This already had been fixed in TSJS-Repo.

[mhegazy]

indeed. thanks @YuichiNukiyama!

Soooo, wait for the next release or...?

Maybe time to think about making the DOM declaration files explicitly versionable/installable (e.g. via typings) since these seem to get more frequent updates than the Typescript package itself?

@mindplay-dk perhaps, but that's for another issue - for now, you can fetch the current versions of our lib.d.ts manually or you can use nightly versions of TypeScript by running npm install -g typescript@next.
