Description

Bug Report

Currently, accessors in object literals are condensed in plain properties - this an issue when get/set use different types. The workaround is to explicitly specify the type (see playground). Ideally, accessor should be preserved in declaration files, when possible.

💻 Code

export const Foo = {
    get bar(): number { /* ... */ },
    set bar(value: number | string) { /* ... */ }
};

🙁 Actual behavior

export declare const Foo: {
    bar: number;
};

🙂 Expected behavior

export declare const Foo: {
    get bar(): number;
    set bar(value: number | string);
};
