Ouch, yep that was a mistake I forgot about the returnObject parameter. So it really should be unknown or any right?

[blarsern]

Probably not used a lot ;)

Not sure what's best of unknown or any..

[zewa666]

ok so the proper result seems to be TResult which can be string | object | Array<string | object> | undefined.

Please give the fixed version in the PR a try. Clone the tr-result branch, run npm run build and then install in your project via npm install ../path/to/your/local/clone/root.

If all is good we can merge and create another patch release.

Well tested it.

Now this simple code fails: return { name: this.i18n.tr('enums.myEnum.ngh') };

TS2322: Type 'TrResult' is not assignable to type 'string'. Type 'object' is not assignable to type 'string'.

To fix this, i have to add toString: return { name: this.i18n.tr('enums.myEnum.ngh').toString() };

var a:string = this.i18n.tr('enums.myEnum.ngh'); //Not working var a:string = this.i18n.tr('enums.myEnum.ngh').toString(); //Working

So basically this will require a lot of toString() everywhere.

Too much work to get it to compile, so didn't test arrays :)

Thx for the Test and the Testcase, I'll fix that when at the PC.

ok lets give the next version a try, I've pushed the changes @blarsern

Seems to be working perfectly @zewa666

Thanks!
