Description
JavaScript and TypeScript Nightly version: 5.6.0-dev.20240819
Splitting a tuple across multiple lines, which is used as the default type for a parameter on a method in an interface or class in a declaration file (.d.ts), breaks syntax highlighting below that line.
Code
// Please include a code snippet that demonstrates the issue
export interface Broken {
a<A extends [number] = [
number
]>(value: number): boolean;
b(value: number): string;
}
export interface Other {
constructor(name: string);
}
