💻 Code
class A {
x: string = 'A';
y: number = 0;
}
class B {
x: string = 'B';
z: boolean = true;
}
type T<X extends { x: any }> = Pick<X, 'x'>;
type C = T<A>;
type D = T<B>;
type C_extends_D = C extends D ? true : false; // true
type PickA_extends_PickB = Pick<A, 'x'> extends Pick<B, 'x'> ? true : false; // true
type TA_extends_TB = T<A> extends T<B> ? true : false; // false (?)
declare let a: T<A>;
declare let b: T<B>;
declare let c: C;
declare let d: D;
b = a; // error here (?)
c = d;
🙁 Actual behavior
- Type
TA_extends_TBisfalse. ais not assignable tob.
🙂 Expected behavior
- All types
TA_extends_TBshould betrue, the same way asC_extends_DandPickA_extends_PickB. ashould be assignable toband vice-versa, the same way ascandd.
