[SOLVED] Using of npm link lead to AoT build failure with "Error: Error encountered resolving symbol values statically. Calling function 'makeDecorator', function calls are not supported"

[bobrosoft]

Hope that solution will help somebody:
add next into "compilerOptions" of tsconfig.webpack.json and tsconfig.json:

    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "@angular/*": ["node_modules/@angular/*"]
    }

This does not solve my problem.....

Please advice should the error below considered as a different issue or its same. I am sure its the same..

Here below is the exact error message that I am receiving when try to link one of myCustom angular component library with my IonicProject. I am using the following command.
_ionic-app-scripts build --prod_

Error message
Error: Error encountered resolving symbol values statically. Function calls are not supported. Consider replacing the function or lambda with a reference to an exported function (position 756:18 in the original .ts file), resolving symbol Component in C:/Monsenso-Source/administration/node_modules/@monsenso/components/node_modules/@angular/core/core.d.ts, resolving symbol LoginComponent in C:/Monsenso-Source/administration/node_modules/@monsenso/components/lib/components/login/login.component.d.ts, resolving symbol LoginComponent in C:/Monsenso-Source/administration/node_modules/@monsenso/components/lib/components/login/login.component.d.ts

It works when its with out --prod

command that works
_ionic-app-scripts build_

any pointer / advice ..

@qasimraza1979 sounds as usual AoT issue, not related to that one. Search on internet, there is plenty of info on your issue.

@bobrosoft i did a lot but haven't got a working solution. This is why after struggling for one month, I asked the question here.

[qasimraza1979]

@bobrosoft
I found the solution and will share here below
placed following two line into the tsConfig.json into the Angular CLI project (in my case my ionic project)

saved my life. It was a tough journey for a month now but nailed it ;-)
I placed earlier in a wrong place, which indeed was a mistake.

@qasimraza1979 how is that different to my first comment? :)
