ts considers files that are excluded while compiling

[lucamorelli]

Hi,
I have an angular2 application done with asp.net 5 rc1, vs, typescript and with packages installed via npm. I reopened the solution after a few weeks, after the update of typescript to 1.8.6.0 and beta 8 version of angular 2.
Since I have all the client packages inside the root node_modules directory, and I need to coy them inside the wwwroot, I use the gulp package gulp-npm-files to copy all the files inside the wwwroot, and so far it worked fine.
Now, if I install the packages via and npm and compile, all is fine, but if I copy the files inside the wwwroot and recompile I have a lot of errors like

Module '"...wwwroot/node_modules/angular2/src/core/linker/interfaces"' has no exported member 'LIFECYCLE_HOOKS_VALUES'.
this is the content of the tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "noImplicitAny": false,
    "noEmitOnError": false,
    "removeComments": false,
    "target": "es5",
    "experimentalDecorators": true,
    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
    "outDir": "wwwroot",
    "module": "amd",
    "inlineSourceMap": true,
    "inlineSources": true,
    "moduleResolution": "node"
  },
  "exclude": [
    "node_modules",
    "wwwroot"
  ]
}

I suppose that all the ts files inside the ts files inside wwwroot are excluded: has everything changed with the new version?

I'm having trouble following where this could be going wrong from the above description. Do you have a project you can point me at with the problem?

Also, from the one error message you show, it looks like it is resolving the module path, but it does not contain the exported member expected. I don't know how old your original code is, but are you sure this isn't API changes on the Angular end as they have moved through pre-releases?

I'm uploading at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19486794/Samples.zip right now. It's quite huge because I zipped with all the installed packages. Since there are a few node modules with a long file path, you could need to unzip it using sevenzip. I'm updating to the latest bits, but I haven't seen big changes from the last running version. If I don't copy the packages from the app root to the wwwroot compiles fine, the problem start after the copy.
I was cleaning up this project because #7321, since in this solution I have working samples of angular2 and aurelia, and I don't know if this could be of help.

Actually I solved the problem modifying the copy task making it ignore .ts and tsconfig.json files
