Fails to calculate arguments length, when combining tuple spread with extra arguments #29248
Description
Activity
I'm changing this to a suggestion as the current behavior is actually intended. From the description in #24897:
When a function call includes a spread expression of a tuple type as the last argument, the spread expression corresponds to a sequence of discrete arguments of the tuple element types.
A spread expression in any position but the last is always processed as a spread of an array type, i.e. we consider it to contribute an unknown number of arguments.
A key issue with this suggestion is whether we're willing to trust that a fixed-length tuple type always has exactly the declared fixed length. We do the best we can to check it, but it is obviously easy to circumvent.
I was just going through my open bug reports and looked at my playground link.
The behavior seems to have changed with TS 4.0 and variadic tuple types.I guess it can be closed than.
TypeScript Version: 3.3.0-dev.20190103
Search Terms: tuple, array, spread, arguments, length
Code
Expected behavior:
Correctly calculate the count of the arguments passed into
foo. Add the additional arguments to the length of the tuple. Basically the last two examples should not throw an error.Actual behavior:
When adding additional arguments after the spreaded tuple, TS fails to calculate the total amount of arguments end expects the amount of the additional arguments "+ more".
