I have set up a folder structure for creating some event handlers in TypeScript.
I have installed node types
npm install @types/node --save-dev
and xrm types
npm install @types/xrm --save-dev
In my form.ts . my event handler code works but in the intellisense, I appear to be short changed 😒 , as I am missing some key methods such as setNotification on my dob control ... Anybody seen this before
I can confirm I can define the date control in a couple of ways and still ensure I am able to send notifications.

var dobFieldControl1 = formContext.getControl<Xrm.Controls.DateControl>(dobFieldLogicalName);
dobFieldControl1.setNotification( "First syntax","whatever");
const dobFieldControl2 : Xrm.Controls.DateControl = formContext.getControl(dobFieldLogicalName);
dobFieldControl2.setNotification( "Second syntax","whatever");
I believe that was done because some of the controls do not have notification capabilities like iframes and subgrids.

Hi thanks,
I will report this to them. Does seem very confusing given the form control works fine with out needing to cast to a XRM type .
Yes this does work, with no type issues. So are we casting to the correct type with this syntax?
var dobFieldControl1 = formContext.getControl<Xrm.Controls.DateControl>(dobFieldLogicalName);
dobFieldControl1.setNotification( "eee","whatever");
Hello, try to use the following syntax:
const dobFieldControl = formContext.getControl<Xrm.Controls.DateControl>("fieldname");
dobFieldControl.setNotification("whatever");
the package types/xrm is not created by Microsoft but from the community, the GitHub project should be this one https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/tree/master/types/xrm
