Program
Defined in
program.ts
. The compilation context (a concept we covered previously) is represented within the TypeScript compiler as a Program
. It consists of SourceFile
s and compiler options.Its interaction mechanism with the OE:
Program
-uses-> CompilerHost
-uses-> System
The reason for having a
CompilerHost
as a point of indirection is that it allows its interface to be more finely tuned for Program
needs and not bother with OE needs (e.g. the Program
doesn't care about fileExists
a function provided by System
).There are other users of
System
as well (e.g. tests).The program provides an API to get the Source Files
getSourceFiles(): SourceFile[];
. Each is represented as a root-level node for an AST (called SourceFile
).Last modified 4yr ago
