I am starting with TypeScript using Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate. I have changed my MSBuild including the --module amd tag in the compiler command. The compiler started to generate AMD modules.
I have include in my project RequireJS from Nuget Packages and include in my main HTML this line:
<script type="text/javascript" data-main="scripts/SiteMaster" src="scripts/require.min.js"></script>
I have two Modules SiteMaster and Authenticate. The module SiteMaster is simple:
export module SiteMaster {
import auth = module("Authenticate");
auth.Authenticate.run();
}
It just imports the Authenticate module and calls the function run(). The js for SiteMaster is like this:
define(["require", "exports"], function(require, exports) {
(function (SiteMaster) {
var auth = __auth__;
auth.Authenticate.run();
})(exports.SiteMaster || (exports.SiteMaster = {}));
})
The problem is that when I browse the solution I receive the error:
Microsoft JScript runtime error: '__auth__' is undefined
How can I solve this problem ???
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for bringing this up mvbaffa!
On Valentin's sample if you change SiteMaster.ts to:
import auth = module("Authenticate");
export module SiteMaster {
auth.Authenticate.run();
}
by moving the import statement out of the module declaration it will generate the correct js code. I'll open a bug on the TypeScript codeplex site and make sure this gets fixed. You can do the workaround on the current compiler [v0.8] if this is a blocking issue for you.

I am pretty much convinced that this is an error in the compiler. I have reproduced the issue using the following source files:
Authenticate.ts
export var Authenticate = {
run : function() {
console.log("Run!");
}
}
SiteMaster.ts
export module SiteMaster {
import auth = module("Authenticate");
auth.Authenticate.run();
}
test.html
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" data-main="SiteMaster" src="http://requirejs.org/docs/release/2.1.0/minified/require.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<p>Test</p>
</body>
</html>
I compile the typescripts using
tsc --module amd SiteMaster.ts Authenticate.ts
When I open the test.html in Firefox with Firebug, I get the following error:
ReferenceError: __auth__ is not defined
var auth = __auth__;
The compiled code for SiteMaster.js looks as follows:
define(["require", "exports"], function(require, exports) {
(function (SiteMaster) {
var auth = __auth__;
auth.Authenticate.run();
})(exports.SiteMaster || (exports.SiteMaster = {}));
})
Judging from TypeScript's language specification section 9.4.3 AMD Modules I would expect something along the lines of:
define(["require", "exports", "authenticate"], function(require, exports, authenticateModule) {
(function (SiteMaster) {
var auth = authenticateModule;
auth.Authenticate.run();
})(exports.SiteMaster || (exports.SiteMaster = {}));
})
This is in line with the examples in the language specification. If others agree, we might submit a bug with the TypeScript team.
