A custom `SourceMapSource` can optionally provide its own `skipTrivia` function. If this is not provided then the compiler will use the default function designed for TypeScript source files. Previously, when calling this default function we were passing the current `sourceMapSource` rather than the specified `source` whose trivia needs to be skipped. This resulted in the `pos` being incorrectly calculated for external source files that need mapping. **Side note:** There are actually two possible constructors available for creating `SourceMapSource` objects. One of them defaults to an identity function for the `skipTrivia` function if it is not provided (see49689894d7/src/compiler/utilities.ts (L6972-L6976)) and the other one leaves the `skipTrivia` field `undefined` (see5fc8f1dd80/src/services/services.ts (L776-L797)) Unfortunately, it appears that the second of these two constructors is the one available when importing the "typescript" module in node.js code.
TypeScript
TypeScript is a language for application-scale JavaScript. TypeScript adds optional types to JavaScript that support tools for large-scale JavaScript applications for any browser, for any host, on any OS. TypeScript compiles to readable, standards-based JavaScript. Try it out at the playground, and stay up to date via our blog and Twitter account.

Documentation
Building
In order to build the TypeScript compiler, ensure that you have Git and Node.js installed.
Clone a copy of the repo:
git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript.git
Change to the TypeScript directory:
cd TypeScript
Install Jake tools and dev dependencies:
npm install -g jake
npm install
Use one of the following to build and test:
jake local # Build the compiler into built/local
jake clean # Delete the built compiler
jake LKG # Replace the last known good with the built one.
# Bootstrapping step to be executed when the built compiler reaches a stable state.
jake tests # Build the test infrastructure using the built compiler.
jake runtests # Run tests using the built compiler and test infrastructure.
# You can override the host or specify a test for this command.
# Use host=<hostName> or tests=<testPath>.
jake runtests-browser # Runs the tests using the built run.js file. Syntax is jake runtests. Optional
parameters 'host=', 'tests=[regex], reporter=[list|spec|json|<more>]'.
jake baseline-accept # This replaces the baseline test results with the results obtained from jake runtests.
jake lint # Runs tslint on the TypeScript source.
jake help # List the above commands.
Usage
node built/local/tsc.js hello.ts
