  Hi,

  I recently upgrade evaluation version on Wijmo 5 to licensed version.
  
  Using evaluation version, i successfully compile and run Wijmo 5 Angular2 Samples and our Angular2 web project using VS2015. After upgrading, i have a lot of compile errors on Wijmo Angular2 Samples and our project. To upgrade, i substitute all .ts files in wijmo folder under node_modules, all .d.ts files in scripts/definition folder. After compiling, i have hundreds of errors. Typical errors are “Duplicated xx identifier” (TS2300) or “;expected” (TS1005) related to wijmo.d.ts file. However, if a run Wijmo Samples or our project, we have no issue.
  
  I also try setup setting Wijmo dependency using NpmImage in package.json, but i obtain the same result.
  
  Can anyone help me ?

  Regards,
  
  L. Moreno

  Hi Luciano,

  I think this error(TS2300) is caused because you have references to global wijmo modules in your scripts folder and external modules in the node_modules folder. You don’t need these files if you are using the NPM images, so try removing ‘.js’, ‘.d.ts’, and ‘.ts’ files from all folders not in node_modules. You can keep any .css files.

  Let me know if this resolves your issue.

  Regards,
  
  Troy

  Below is a link to download a simple sample I created with a FlexGrid control. You can use it as a reference for comparison.

  Hi Troy,

  thanks for your replay.
  
  I tried your suggestions, but during compilation I always get hundreds of errors.

  However, I recently discovered the reason of my problem. In my original mail, I forgot to indicate my development environment, which is Visual Studio 2015 Update 2. VS2015 Update 2 uses Typescript compiler 1.8. The licensed version of Wijmo Angular2 has introduced the keyword “Readonly” in many TS files. This keyword is supported starting from Typescript 2.0. VS2015 Update 2 is unable to apply Typescript 2.0, it support only 1.8.
  
  After upgrading to Update3 of VS2015, I install Typescript 2.0 compiler and hundreds of error disappear.

  Regards,
  
  Luciano
