visual studio typescript “Uncaught ReferenceError: exports is not defined at…” [duplicate]

Answer 1

CommonJs isn't needed. Wrap all typescript in a common namespace and then export other namespaces, class, etc. Does offer intellisense:

MyClass1.ts

namespace GlobalNamespace {
     export class MyClass1 {
         prop1:string;
     }
}

MyClass2.ts

namespace GlobalNamespace {
     export class MyClass2 {
          prop2:string;
     }
}

Divide into namespace units:

SubClasses.ts

namespace GlobalNamespace {
     export namespace SubNamespace1 {
        export class SubClass1 {
             myClass1: MyClass1;
        }
     }
}

namespace GlobalNamespace {
     export namespace SubNamespace2 {
        export class SubClass2 {
             subClass1:SubNamespace1.SubClass1;
        }
     }
}

Instantiate SubClass2

var subClass2 = new GlobalNamespace.SubNamespace2.SubClass2();
