Issue with 2.2.2 and 2.2.3

[jmc265]

This issue is not present when using 2.2.1.

The build results in a failure with message:

ERROR in ./src/main.ts

Can provide more information if needed.

This happens because host.ts:150 passes two arguments to getAutomaticTypeDirectiveNames:

const directives = this.ts.getAutomaticTypeDirectiveNames(options, this.compilerHost);

which expects three (typescript.d.ts:1880):

function getAutomaticTypeDirectiveNames(options: CompilerOptions, rootFiles: string[], host: CompilerHost): string[];

[email protected] is obsolete, please use typescript@rc (2.0.2 right now) which introduces some fixes and behavior changes.

[textbook]

typescript@beta is still 2.0.0, and that's what Angular CLI requires (see e.g. angular/angular-cli#1917). Guess this is what happens when you try to hit a moving target...

[s-panferov]

@textbook rc > beta according to http://semver.org/, so I believe angular-cli should move to the latest stable version, which is rc 2.0.2
