Use a mis-aligned rxjs import:

import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Rx';

$ ng build --aot --prod --build-optimizer

Desired functionality.

Whether that rxjs syntax should be build success? I don't think so!

A better error message is good!

Mention any other details that might be useful.

[dherges]

After #7105, I have now a fresh working copy at dherges/ng-cli-build-optimizer-issue7110.

I will try to reproduce the issue there and then give an update.

[rtm]

I had a similar problem and solved it by replacing import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Rx'; with import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';.

[dherges]

@rtm Yep, thanks! That's the cause!

@filipesilva Here's the repro: dherges/ng-cli-build-optimizer-issue7110@4a19a56

@Hanfrey FYI ... Fehler erkannt, Fehler gebannt! 🐎

[filipesilva]

This shouldn't happen, and I think it's the same as angular/devkit#51. Will investigate.

[chriszrc]

Hi,

So are you saying you could still import the entire rxjs library:

import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Rx';

But still see tree-shaking and just get what you need? Would certainly be less verbose than having to import all the different operators individually given the alternative import

[slubowsky]

Im getting same issue - but dont think the import is "mis-aligned". Im using a 3rd party library which imports Observable bindCallback like this:
import 'rxjs/add/observable/bindCallback';

and then my build results in:

ERROR in ./node_modules/rxjs/observable/BoundCallbackObservable.js
