💻 Code

class Foo {
    #value = 1234;
    getValue() { return this.#value; }
}

const foo = new Foo();

console.log(`foo.getValue() = ${foo.getValue()}`);

// Oops, I didn't bind!
const getValue = foo.getValue;

// Throws: Cannot read private member from an object whose class did not declare it
console.log(`getValue() = ${getValue()}`)

🙁 Actual behavior

Throws Cannot read private member from an object whose class did not declare it.

But the actual problem is that this is undefined and I had no idea!

🙂 Expected behavior

A special error for this when undefined; IIRC there's no possible way this would normally pass, so a special error would be a lot more clear.

Commencez par reproduire l’accès à un champ privé non lié dans le TypeScript Playground indiqué, puis comparez-le à l’appel lié montré dans l’issue. Suivez la manière dont l’helper de private-field généré par le compilateur signale l’échec, puis faites en sorte que le cas undefined-this produise l’erreur plus claire décrite et vérifiez les deux exemples.
