Error encountered resolving symbol values statically

[Sam Verschueren]

After upgrading my dependencies to angular@2.4. I started receiving the following error when I do AoT compilation.

Error: Error encountered resolving symbol values statically. Could not resolve aspect.js relative to /Users/sam/Projects/pridiktiv/
frontend/medapp/dist/tmp/app/shared/async-services/aws.async-service.ts.

I import Aspect.js like this

import { Wove } from 'aspect.js';

And I can resolve the issue by importing it like this

import { Wove } from 'aspect.js/aspect.js';

I use your seed project so I upgraded my compile.ahead.prod.ts to the one in the Seed project.

Do you have any ideas as to what is causing this issue? It worked perfectly before I did the upgrade. Don't have any issues with other libraries either.

The main file in the seed's SystemJS configuration is not set.

[Sam Verschueren]

It doesn't use the SystemJS config when running AoT, or is it?

[Sam Verschueren]

I mean while running the build step off course.

@SamVerschueren I believe this is an issue in the @angular/compiler-cli.

• Here's the issue I opened angular/angular#14663.
• Here's PR with fix angular/angular#14664.
