@crisbeto crisbeto commented Nov 9, 2023

Fixes that all implicit variables in @for loops were inferred to be numbers, even though most are actually boolean.

Note that I also had to work around a weird TypeScript behavior in tsDeclareVariable where usually we declare variables in the following format:

var _t1: <type> = null!;

This works in most cases, but if the type is a boolean, TypeScript infers the variable as never, instead of boolean. I've worked around it by adding an as boolean to the initializer.

Fixes #52730.

Fixes that all implicit variables in `@for` loops were inferred to be numbers, even though most are actually boolean.

Note that I also had to work around a weird TypeScript behavior in `tsDeclareVariable` where usually we declare variables in the following format:

```
var _t1: <type> = null!;
```

This works in most cases, but if the type is a `boolean`, TypeScript infers the variable as `never`, instead of `boolean`. I've worked around it by adding an `as boolean` to the initializer.

Fixes angular#52730.
