typescript duplicate identifier build errors after updating to VS 2015 update 3

[James]

hi,

i updated my VS 2015 with update 3 and now i cannot build my project that uses Kendo MVC Grid, v2015.1.429.340.

i am getting a huge number of errors like these:

KendoUIMVC\typescript\kendo.all.d.ts(245,9): error TS2300: Build:Duplicate identifier 'paramName'.
KendoUIMVC\typescript\kendo.all.d.ts(246,9): error TS2300: Build:Duplicate identifier 'useWithBlock'.
KendoUIMVC\typescript\kendo.all.d.ts(249,11): error TS2300: Build:Duplicate identifier 'Class'.
KendoUIMVC\typescript\kendo.all.d.ts(254,11): error TS2300: Build:Duplicate identifier 'Observable'....

how do i fix this?

thanks.

Hello James,

Would you upgrade Kendo UI to the latest release and see if the behavior changes? The current release is 2016.2.607.

we would actually prefer not to be forced to update the version right now,   can u plz make both versions compatible with typescript 1.0.3.0

also we need this resolved asap, meaning tomorrow.  we need this code to go to production.

thanks.

Hi James,

Please ensure that the definitions are added only once. Also make sure that they are not referenced more than one time.
