🕗 Version & Regression Information

  • This is the behavior in every version I tried, and I reviewed the FAQ for entries about circular

💻 Code

Foo.js

/** @typedef {Object.<string, Foo>} Foo */

Foo.ts

type Foo = {
    [x: string]: Foo;
};

🙁 Actual behavior

Type alias 'Foo' circularly references itself. ts(2456) happens in Foo.js. The TypeScript equivalent works fine.

🙂 Expected behavior

Both Foo.ts and Foo.js work without errors.

Related issues

I found some related issues but they are either closed or use a different example. #39372 - Closed (fixed) #45641 - Seems very similar but uses Array<> and typescript rather than jsdoc. I'm not sure if the root cause is the same so this might be a duplicate.
