Description

I am getting following error on calling getMetadataKeys on target object only on IE browser. Code works fine on chrome and firefox -

TypeError

We have used property decorator.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the property-decorator case in Internet Explorer and inspect public/reflect-metadata/reflect-metadata.js around GetIterator and OrdinaryOwnMetadataKeys, using the reported stack trace as the entry point. Compare the failing iterator path with the working Chrome and Firefox behavior; done means getMetadataKeys works on the target object in IE without the reported TypeError.
