TypeScript 2.8中的MSApp等效项

Question

I use TypeScript in my WinJS-Application.
I just updated my TypeScript version to 2.8. After the update I was not able to compile my project, because with the update to 2.8 some MS-specific tpyes are removed from the lib.d.ts . Unfortunately I use one of these types [MSApp] and I can´t find any hint, what to use instead.
I use the type for the function getHtmlPrintDocumentSourceAsync .
So how can I use this type again? Do I need another .d.ts?

Answer 1

A possible workaround is to take the declaration of the MSApp interface of the lib.d.ts of typescript 2.7. This is possible, because the implementation of this interface didn't change. Only the declaration is missing. You can find the lib.d.ts on the GitHub page of typescript in the branch release-2.7 .
Here is a direct link to the lib.dt.ts .
