๐Ÿ’ป Code

class T { static readonly ["t"]: unique symbol; } let x: { [T["t"]]: number; }; let y = { [T["t"]]: 1 }

๐Ÿ™ Actual behavior

The type of x has an error saying: A computed property name in a type literal must refer to an expression whose type is a literal type or a 'unique symbol'

The type of y is emitted in declaration files just like the type of x and causes an error in the d.ts file

๐Ÿ™‚ Expected behavior

The type of x should be valid. If we use a non-computed property name, the type would be valid (let x: { [T.t]: number; }, Playground Link). Declaration emit should not emit invalid code.

Additional information about the issue

Probably fixed by #60052 since the limitation on computed property names in types goes away.
