💻 Code

import { defineProps as vueDefineProps } from 'vue';

declare const Comp: {
  new <__VERTER__TS__T extends string = ''>(): {
    $props: defineProps<__VERTER__TS__T>
  };
}

(
  <Comp name="foo"
    onName={e => {
      // @ts-expect-error this should never happen
      if (e !== 'dd') {
      }
    }} />
);



; function TemplateBindingFN<T extends string>() {
  const Props = vueDefineProps<{
    name: T;
    onName: (n: T) => void;
  }>()

  return { defineProps: Props as typeof Props }
};

export type defineProps<T extends string> = ReturnType<typeof TemplateBindingFN<T>>['defineProps']

🙁 Actual behavior

In later version the onName argument does not get the generic information resolved, defaulting to string, earlier versions 5.x infer e as 'foo'

🙂 Expected behavior

e should be implicitly inferred based on the generic passed in name

Additional information about the issue

It seems to be caused by the type mutation of DefineProps

export type DefineProps<T, BKeys extends keyof T> = Readonly<T> & {
  readonly [K in BKeys]-?: boolean
}
