`hasPopin` does not exist on type `Table`

See original GitHub issue

Are only the public methods exposed? sap.m.Table has a method called hasPopin: but the typedefs throw an error:

My version is 1.96, the latest LTM

Well, the generator exposes @public and @protected methods the same way.

Therefore, your finding puzzled me a while, until I noticed that the 1st screenshot does not show a JSDoc comment, only a simple block comment which is not evaluated as documentation.

This looks quite unintentional and I’ll let the developers of the sap.m.Table control know.

Answer from the Table colleagues: those methods are only meant for internal use between related controls. They are planned to be marked as @ui5-restricted, which means they will continue not to be visible in the SDK API documentation and continue not to be meant for use in e.g. applications. So I’m closing this issue.

The topic how “internal” usages of restricted APIs with TypeScript can be supported is generally an open question. Some APIs are restricted to related controls, others to specific stakeholders (which can be informed in case of breaking changes) etc. Of course they need the types defined to easily use them, but on the other hand we cannot produce tailored type definitions for each different group of such internal users. Right now a way out is to define the needed types on top on side of the users.
