Description

JavaScript Intellisense doesn't detect types of properties defined in async constructors

Summary

A popular asynchronous constructor pattern in JavaScript is using an async IIFE in the constructor which returns this at the end. E.g.

constructor() {
	return (async () => {
		this.#x = 42;
		this.y = 42;

		return this;
	})();
}

However, VSCode Intellisense does not infer the types for properties defined in such a constructor.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open a blank JavaScript, and paste in the following code:
class Class1 {
	#x;
	y;
	constructor() {
		this.#x = 42;
		this.y = 42;
	}
}
class Class2 {
	#x;
	y;
	constructor() {
		return (async () => {
			this.#x = 42;
			this.y = 42;

			return this;
		})();
	}
}
  1. Hover over y in Class1 and observe the tooltip: (property) Class1.y: number
  2. Hover over y in Class2 and observe the tooltip: (property) Class2.y: any
