support for including original comments in d.ts file?

[johnnotron]

I'm not seeing original jsdoc comments included generated d.ts files, would this be hard to implement?

Thanks

From the v2 changelog:

JSDoc comments are not currently included in the output (public TS compiler API needed)

I haven't seen how I can make the TS compiler output comments yet. If you know which compiler APIs to use, please let me know. The API is fairly new and completely undocumented, so I haven't found everything yet.

Thanks. I haven't gone looking too deep but tested this project which does manage to include the comments, but the defs generated are not as good.

Appears to use dts-dom to create the definitions instead of typescript package, don't know if that would be of use?

v1 of this project used dts-dom. v2 uses the typescript compiler directly.

I need to find an API in the typescript compiler that allows me to build comment nodes in the AST.
