intellisense does not work when using module.exports.fnName

[SamVerschueren]

• VSCode Version: 0.10.14 (insiders) and below
• OS Version: Mac OS X 10.11.3

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a file called cfx.js with the following content

'use strict';
module.exports.generateCanvas = function (fileOrUrl) {
    console.log(fileOrUrl);
};

1. Create a file index.js

'use strict';
var cfx = require('./file1');

1. When you type cfx. in index.js, it will not suggest generateCanvas. If you change cfx.js to exports.generateCanvas instead of module.exports.generateCanvas, it works.

This seems to be a bug because both notations are equivalent.

Thanks @egamma

Does that mean that is not a problem in VSCode but on typescript itself?

I believe it's the TypeScript language server that deals with this so I think it is.
