The problem is that the chrome debugger believes that the this
in the source code refers to the run-time this
, but this
inside a arrow function in typescript source code is actually transformed to _this
, so it’s showing you the wrong object.
This is why it’s only a problem in the debugger and the code still works fine. When I need to debug something where this is a problem, I just copy it to the console and prepend it with an underscore.
