I am using the FileReader Interface and it’s asynchronous method readAsText() to read a local text file, After that when the onload event is called, I try to read my file, my source code is something like the following:
export class ReadFileComponent {
text: string;
readFile(): void {
let reader=new FileReader();
reader.onload = function(e) {
this.text=reader.result;
}
reader.readAsText(file);
}
}
compilation is failed because Property "text" does not exist on type "FileReader"
I think this is due to the EventListener interface does not accept objects ,
did someone please solve this kind of issue?
thanks guys,
