ArrayBufferView#length missing

See original GitHub issue

The TypedArray documentation (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/TypedArray) shows there is a TypedArray#length member that indicates the number of elements in the array.

ArrayBufferView is an alias for TypedArray (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ArrayBufferView). Therefore, it should also have a length property. However, the tslib ArrayBufferView interface does not have it:

An ArrayBufferView is one of Uint8Array, Int32Array, etc., right?

Yes, including DataView which does not have that property. Look closely at the ArrayBufferView link you posted to MDN. The last item on the list is DataView.

If, in fact, they are the same thing - then what type is in tslib that represents TypedArray?

ArrayBufferView represents a TypedArray. A DataView is a typed array.

That sounds like a userland thing, not a tslib provided type. As the MDN states, there is no interface or constructor called TypedArray, so i wouldn’t expect this library to provide one.
