💻 Code

interface ParentI {
    foo(): void
}
abstract class Parent {
    abstract foo(): void
}

// Middle implements Parent via declaration merge

class Middle extends Parent {}
interface Middle extends ParentI {}

class Child extends Middle {} // doesn't work

// Middle implements Parent directly
class Middle2 extends Parent {
    foo() {}
}

class Child2 extends Middle2 {} // works

🙁 Actual behavior

Typescript complains that Child must implement an foo, even though Middle has already implemented foo via declaration merging.

🙂 Expected behavior

I would expect Child to pass type-checking, just as Child2 does. Seeing as how Middle (a concrete class) is type-safe and Child extends Middle with no further modification, this feels very surprising.

Additional information about the issue

No response

Inizia con la riproduzione fornita di TypeScript Playground e confronta l'esempio di unione delle dichiarazioni con il caso Middle2 implementato direttamente. Traccia la gestione dei membri astratti da parte del compilatore attraverso le dichiarazioni unite di classe e interfaccia, quindi aggiungi un test di regressione che dimostri che Child supera il controllo dei tipi senza implementare foo autonomamente.
